Come on. Admit it… I had you at Reese’s, didn’t I? These cookies are a family favorite and are a perfect addition to any holiday cookie plate. Their mini muffin-tin shape makes it hard to eat just one, though! Enjoy!
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
- 1/2 c. butter
- 1/2 c. peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- 1/2 c. sugar
- 1/2 c. brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 1 1/4 c. flour
- 3/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 40something mini Reese’s peanut butter cups (you can eat the extras
)
Beat butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add egg and vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda and salt. Add to wet ingredients. Roll into 1 inch balls. Place in greased mini muffin pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 9 minutes. When done, place peanut butter cup onto cookie and press down. Let cool in pan before removing. Yields around 3 1/2 dozen cookies.
Quick Tip: I like to use my small scoop for these to keep the balls more uniform and easier to roll.
Hey! Your peanut butter’s in my chocolate!

Oh, no, your chocolate is in my peanut butter! Either way… you are so right. You had me at Reese’s!

Hey, I just remembered that I have a mini muffin pan I purchased just to make these cookies. I don’t know where it is. I haven’t seen it since I moved here. Now I’ll have to go on the hunt to look for it. Thanks for reminding me of these.
I would have to double this recipe. They would go so fast around here! Thanks!
Wow I have made these for years and they are always a big hit. They are
the best. I use to take them to work for pot lucks and everyone loved them.
These were good but there is a recipe where you put half a miniature in BEFORE cooking. Anyone know this one – - -
This is the best recipe! I tried another this year with more flour and it was not nearly as good as this one!!
So glad you enjoy it!
