Found this recipe on a bag of Reeses, and just had to try it!

Provided by April Billedeau

Categories     Chocolate

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

40 reeses peanut butter cups miniatures
1 stick butter or margarine, softened
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c packed light brown sugar
1/2 c reeses creamy peanut butter
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. Heaven oven to 375 degrees. Remove wrappers from candies. Line small muffin cups (1 3/4 inches in diameter) with paper bake cups, if desired.
  • 2. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, egg and vanilla until fluffy in large bowl. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating until well blended. Shape dough into 1-inch balls; place one in each paper-lined or ungreased muffin cup. Do not flatten.
  • 3. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until puffed and lightly browned; remove from oven. Immediately press peanut butter cup in center of each cookie. Cool completely in muffin pan.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peanut butter. Not all peanut butters are created equal. For the best results, use a natural peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugars or oils.
  • Use creamy peanut butter. Creamy peanut butter will give your treats a smoother texture than chunky peanut butter.
  • Chill the peanut butter before using. This will make it easier to work with and will help your treats set up properly.
  • Don't overmix your batter. Overmixing will make your treats tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake your treats at the right temperature. Ovens can vary, so it's important to check your treats a few minutes before the baking time is up. They are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let your treats cool completely before serving. This will help them to set up properly and will prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used to make a variety of treats. From cookies and brownies to fudge and ice cream, there's a peanut butter treat out there for everyone. So next time you're looking for something sweet to satisfy your cravings, reach for peanut butter. You won't be disappointed.
