Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

How is it Friday already??

This week was a blur. My parents came for a quick mid-week visit, and my mom brought some of her yummy goodies for us (thanks Mom), including these dangerous little cookies! Dangerous because you can't eat just one - you've been warned!

I wanted to share this recipe on the blog, but haven't had a chance to make them recently, so the ones in these pictures were made by my mom. They're easier than they look and absolutely delicious!!

Preheat oven to 350.

Combine all ingredients.

Roll dough into 1" balls and place in cups of a mini muffin pan.

Bake for 8 minutes - cookies should puff up in the center and fall when removed from oven, forming cups.

Let cool slightly, then press a small peanut butter cup into the middle.

Let cool a little longer before removing from pan (if removed too soon, cookies may be too soft and chocolate may seep through bottom of cookie).

Above recipe makes ~48 cookies.
