Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 24 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups, unwrapped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or line with mini cupcake liners.

  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and peanut butter until smooth and fluffy.

  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.

  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients to form a dough.

  5. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough into each muffin cup and gently press to fill.

  6. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

  7. Immediately press a mini Reese’s cup into the center of each cookie while warm.

  8. Let cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

  9. Serve once chocolate is set—or enjoy warm and gooey.

Notes

  • Use natural peanut butter if desired, but consistency may vary.

  • Swap in mini chocolate truffles or other candies for variations.

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
