Tips:

  • For a richer peanut butter flavor, use natural peanut butter.
  • If your peanut butter is too thick, you can microwave it for a few seconds to soften it.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Don't over-bake the cookies. They should be just set around the edges but still soft in the center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them with peanut butter. This will help prevent the peanut butter from melting.
  • For a fun twist, you can fill the cookies with other fillings, such as chocolate ganache, Nutella, or jam.

Conclusion:

These easy peanut butter cookie cups are a delicious and fun treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are craving something sweet, give these cookies a try!
