Decadent peanut butter cookies with a surprise mini peanut butter cup center. Inspired by a sugar-free baker sharing sweets with friends for feedback.
Ingredients:
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
  • 0.5 cup shortening
  • 0.5 cup peanut butter
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 24 miniature peanut butter cups
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and grease mini muffin pans. Next, sift together the flour and baking soda, then set it aside.
  • Combine white sugar, brown sugar, and shortening in a medium bowl until creamy. Mix in peanut butter and egg until well combined. Alternate adding milk, vanilla, and dry ingredients, stirring until blended. Press rounded tablespoons of dough into mini muffin cups, leaving a hole in the middle. Press a peanut butter cup into each cup without pushing through the dough.
  • Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake until golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool completely on the pans before transferring.
