Ingredients

Scale
  • 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

  • 130 g mini chocolate chips
  • 24 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups, unwrapped

Instructions

  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips for even distribution.
  7. Lightly grease a mini muffin pan.
  8. Roll dough into 2.5 cm balls and place each into a muffin cup.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden brown.

  11. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring bites to a wire rack to cool completely.
