HOW TO MAKE PEANUT BUTTER CUP COOKIES

These cookies are so simple to make and I think they will be one of your fav cookies recipes of all time.

To make these cookies, begin combining peanut butter, sugar, salt and eggs until fully blended. Then, it's time to fold the chocolate chips and halved mini peanut butter chocolate chips.

Once the dough is ready, line a baking sheet with parchment.

Use a ¼ measuring cup to create scoops of dough. Roll each scoop into a ball shape and then place onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Be sure to leave room in between each to give the cookies a little room to expand.

Repeat the same process with the rest of the cookie dough.

Bake the cookies for 11-13 minutes. Cool and enjoy.

Using the ¼ cup cookie dough balls will makes about 12 cookies.

You can, but the consistency will not be as good. I would avoid it if you can.

No, I don't recommend it. The consistency and baking time just isn't the same. I've tried a couple of times and the result is not great.
