Tasty Tuesday: Peanut Butter Sugar Cookie Cups


Peanut Butter Sugar Cookie Cups

Aren't they cute? Only 15 minutes for a pretty yummy treat!


I know I'm not usually one for store bought goodies but I couldn't help myself :) 
Two simple ingredients needed. Sugar cookie dough and Reese's peanut butter cups.


Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray. 
[You can use liners but they're VERY hard to get off the cookie cup once they cool.]

Cut up cookie dough into chunks that fill tin to the top like above.
Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.


The cookie cups should fall slightly in on themselves some like on the right side. 
If not thunk the tray lightly when putting it down.

Press a Reese's mini peanut butter cup into each cookie until the top is even.

The Reese's peanut butter cups will melt into the cookie cup. Mmmm.

These are small since I used the mini muffin tin but really they're the perfect little bite of yum.

Aren't these cute? Do you have a favorite quick and easy treat?
