directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, Crisco, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, and baking soda; then stir into the peanut butter mixture. If mixture seems to stiff add 1-2TBS of water.
  • Mix in the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and peanut butter cups.
  • Drop by tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Cookies should appear not quite done; they will finish baking on the sheet once removed.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes on sheet before removing to finish baking and so they won't fall apart.
  • ____________.
  • Tips.
  • You can use all butter if you desire instead of butter/Crisco mix.
  • You can omit cocoa.
  • You can use 10 regular sized peanut butter cups cut in 8ths in place of the minis.
  • If you freeze the cut peanut butter cups before adding to the batter they will stay more intact and give the cookie a different texture/taste.
  • You can substitute 2 cups of peanut butter/chocolate swirl chips in place of the cup each of Chocolate and peanut butter chips.
