I first saw these at a bake sale and was so impressed. You bake a ball of dough in a mini-muffin tin, bake, and press a Reese's peanut butter cup into it after you take it out of oven. You are left with a picture-perfect tart, receiving oohs and aahs and how did you do it? You could even use the refrigerated sugar/peanut butter cookie dough too. Ingredients:
36 reese's miniature peanut butter cups, unwrapped |
1/2 cup peanut butter |
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed |
1 large egg, beaten |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1 1/4 cups flour |
3/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cream peanut butter, butter, sugar and brown sugar until fluffy.
2. Add egg, vanilla, flour, baking soda and salt' mix well.
3. Roll into 1-inch balls (I use small cookie scoop) and place in miniature muffin tins(sprayed with PAM) or in mini cupcake wrappers).
4. Bake 8-10 minutes at 375°F.
5. When tins are removed from oven, immediately press 1 peanut butter cup into the center of the cookie.
6. Allow to cool completely before removing cookies from the tin.
