Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, combine the butter, sugar, and brown sugar, mixing on medium speed until they are combined. Add in the egg, vanilla, and peanut butter, and continue to mix on medium speed until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  4. Add the flour mixture in 2 batches, slowing mixing to combine the flour into the dough. Use a rubber spatula and scrape the sides of the bowl if necessary.
  5. Scoop the dough into 1½-inch balls of dough into the prepared mini muffin tin.
  6. Bake for about 9-11 minutes, until the cookies begin to turn golden brown. Remove from the oven and quickly add a peanut butter cup to the center of each cookie and press down. Repeat until all of the cookies are done.
  7. Remove cookies from pan and allow to cool.

Notes

  • Storage: Store peanut butter cup cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month. 
  • I used a 1½ inch cookie scoop and had enough to make 24 cookies.
