Resses Peanut Butter Cookies

 I first had these cookies at a party and they were to die for.  They were fantastic but I thought they looked really hard to make.  I quickly found out the opposite, and they are really easy!  They are my husbands favorite cookies now!  Here are the easy steps!

*First you need your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe.  Click Here for my recipe, but you can use any recipe.  Make your recipe as normal.  Now we'll transfer your normal cookies into these amazing treats!

Step 1:  Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, place 1 scoop of cookie dough in each slot of a mini muffin tin.  Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for about 10 min.  Each oven is different.  Check the cookies and make sure they don't get over cooked.  You want them to look cooked but not turning brown yet.  When they look done, pull them out.

Step 2:  While the cookies are baking, unwrap the mini reeses peanut butter cups (enough for 1 per slot of your mini muffin tin.).  This takes much longer than you think.  Do NOT wait until they come out of the oven.  It won't work if you do.  They need to be ready.

Step 3:  As soon as you pull the muffin tin out of the oven, take your reeses and gently place 1 into each cup.  Push down slightly.  The reeses will melt right into the cookies.  Put 1 into each cookie.

Step 4:  Let the cookies sit for maybe 3 minutes in the muffin tins till the chocolate starts to sit up a little.  Then remove the cookies from the pan and transfer to a cooling rack.

 

Now just try and wait until the chocolate cools to eat them!  It's tough!
