Ingredients
→ For the Dough:
115 g unsalted butter, softened
120 g creamy peanut butter
100 g granulated sugar
110 g packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
155 g all-purpose flour
0.5 teaspoon baking soda
0.25 teaspoon salt
130 g mini chocolate chips
→ For the Filling:
24 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups, unwrapped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).
In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in mini chocolate chips.
Lightly grease a mini muffin pan. Roll dough into 2.5 cm (1-inch) balls and place one ball in each muffin cup.
Bake for 10–12 minutes or until tops are golden brown.
Immediately press a mini Reese’s cup into the center of each cookie while still warm.
Let cookies cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use room-temperature butter and peanut butter for the best texture.
Store cooled bites in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Freeze dough balls for up to 2 months and bake as needed.
