Ingredients
  

For the cookies:

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (I always use King Arthur)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (I use Jif)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

For the filling:

  • 24 mini Reese's Cups, unwrapped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking and to ensure even baking.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and packed brown sugar until smooth and fluffy. I find that starting the mixer on low speed and working up helps incorporate everything evenly.
  • Add the large egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, then mix until everything is well combined and smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients from Step 4 into the wet mixture from Step 3, mixing until just combined. Make sure not to overmix, as this can make the cookies tough.
  • Shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Flatten each ball, place a mini Reese's Cup in the center, and wrap the dough around the candy to form a ball. I like to chill the dough for about 10 minutes before shaping if it feels too sticky, as it makes wrapping the candies easier.
  • Arrange the stuffed cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
