Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

Hubby likes cookies and he likes peanut butter (I like them too. hehe..).. Put two into one... tah..dah... Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies... Hubby loves them and he said these cookies are great. I saw this recipe last Christmas but I was not able to make them. 

I'm glad that I finally made them. I was a little disappointed because my cookies cracked when I pressed the chocolate PB cup into the cookies. :( But no matter, overall,  they definitely taste good. This is a great recipe and I will make these again and again... :))

Ingredients:

1 3/4 cup all purpose flour

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup butter, softened

1/2 cup peanut butter

1/2 cup white granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1 egg, beaten

1 tsp vanilla essence

2 tbsp milk

40 miniature chocolate covered peanut butter cups, unwrapped (freeze or put in the fridge before use)

Preheat oven at 375 degrees F. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream butter, peanut butter, white sugar and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla essence and milk. Add flour mixture; mix well. Shape into 40 balls and place each into an ungreased mini muffin pan.

Bake for about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately press each miniature chocolate covered peanut butter cups into each ball. Decorate quickly if desire. Cool carefully before removing from the pan.
