directions

  • In a large bowl beat peanut butter and butter until well blended.
  • Beat in sugar, baking powder and soda until well blended.
  • Beat in egg and vanilla until well blended, and slowly begin to add the flour at low speed.
  • Stir in peanut butter cups and mini chocolate chips.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375F degrees.
  • Form cookie dough into 2 inch balls and place evenly on a cookie sheet.
  • With the bottom of a sturdy glass press down to make perfect circles (this is if you wish to make as a gift and pack in a tube-or you have kids like mine-"her's is bigger!") Bake for 10 minutes, remove to a rack to cool.
  • Take the 1/3 cup of mini chocolate chips and pour into the ziplock baggie and seal.
  • Microwave at 50% power for 1 min, turn bag and repeat.
  • mush around with your hand to make sure all chips are melted.
  • Snip off a very tiny corner of the bag and pipe chocolate onto cooled cookies-I do fast lines in all directions, and let stand until chocolate is set.

  1. I thought these were really good, but DH told me I should have reduced the amount of peanut butter or left out the peanutbutter cups. I doubled the recipe (something I just always do because of the love of cookies my family has; never can keep the cookie jar full so don't know what I'll do when the grandkiddies come into this world), including doubling all ingredients except the peanutbutter cups, so I was really surprised when DH told me this. There were so many chunkies (chocolate chips and peanutbutter cups) that when I formed the balls they barely wanted to hold together (lots of chips kept falling out of the dough into the bowl as I did this). My daughters seemed to like them OK, but I didn't hear any 'out of this world' type remarks from them like usual when I've hit on a really great recipe to try. These were a soft and chewy cookie, which is our preferance. Thank you for sharing this recipe Di!
     
  2. Delicious! Chocolate & pb is my fave flavour combo!! The bag of pb cups I bought only gave me about a cup & a half but that was plenty. I didn't bother refrigerating the dough, just dropped it by the spoonful. I also didn't bother drizzling the chocolate on top & these cookies were still impressive!
