Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup +2 TBSP softened butter
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 36 Reese's Thins

Method
 

  1. Using a mixer, cream together the peanut butter, butter, and sugars until blended.
  2. Beat in the egg, milk, and vanilla.
  3. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl.
  4. Add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture and mix together. Scoop in tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls.
  5. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on parchment lined cookie sheets. Bake for 8-10 minutes at 375 degrees. Don't overcook! The cookies are much better slightly undercooked.
  6. Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, gently press a Reese's Thin Peanut Butter Cup in the center of each cookie. Allow the cookies to cool and the chocolate to set up before serving.
