# Instructions:
01 -
Right after baking, gently pop a mini peanut butter cup in the middle of each warm cookie. Let them sit in the pan to cool off for about 10 minutes, then move everything over to a wire rack so they finish cooling down.
02 -
Grease up a mini muffin tray. Roll up the dough into balls around 2.5 cm big and drop them into each cup. Bake till the tops go a little golden, about 10 to 12 minutes.
03 -
In another bowl, mix up the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add this dry mix into the buttery one, just enough so it all comes together. Toss in the mini chocolate chips and give it a quick mix so every bite gets some.
04 -
Get your oven heated to 175°C. In your biggest bowl, beat together the softened butter, peanut butter, both sugars until super light. Crack in that egg and splash in the vanilla, mix it again till all smooth.
# Notes:
01 -
Let your butter and peanut butter hang out at room temp before mixing, so the dough comes together easy.
