Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cup unsalted butter (, at room temperature (170 grams))
1 ½ cup granulated sugar ((300 grams))
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour ((270 grams))
⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder ((60 grams))
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
24 peanut butter cup miniatures
¼ cup creamy peanut butter ((70 grams))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium high speed until light and creamy, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each. Add the vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to the mixer and mix until just combined.
  • Scoop by the heaped tablespoon, roll into balls, and place on the prepared sheet pan. Bake until edges are crisp, about 9 minutes.
  • Let cool on the pan for a 2 minutes, then press a peanut butter cup into the center of each cookie. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
  • Melt peanut butter in a bowl in microwave in 30 second intervals until thin and pourable. Drizzle over the top of cooled cookies. Let sit about 20 minutes until peanut butter is set, or chill in fridge 10 minutes.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container for several days.

Time 25m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 2

One 16.5-ounce package refrigerated peanut butter cookie dough
1 bag of 24 miniature chocolate-peanut butter cups

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Slice the cookie dough into 1-inch-thick slices, then into quarters. Place one quarter into each cup of a mini muffin pan. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes.
  • While the dough is still warm, push a peanut butter cup into each muffin cup and let cool in the pan. When the cookies are cool, use a spoon to remove them.

Tips:

For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate in the batter.

To make the cookies chewier, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.

For a crispy cookie, bake the cookies for a few minutes longer, until the edges are golden brown.

For a gooey peanut butter center, use a high-quality peanut butter that is not too runny.

To make the cookies easier to handle, wet your hands with water before rolling the dough into balls.

For a festive touch, decorate the cookies with sprinkles or chopped nuts before baking.
