These delicious cookies are made using our super–sweet mini chocolate peanut butter cups from our bulk foods department.

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups King Arthur unbleached all–purpose flour
  • ½ cup Droste unsweetened baking cocoa
  • ½ teaspoon Arm & Hammer baking soda
  • teaspoon Morton’s salt
  • ½ cup C&H granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup C&H brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (4 tablespoons) Humboldt Creamery unsalted, softened butter
  • ¼ cup Skippy smooth peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon McCormick vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons of water
  • 1½ cups mini chocolate peanut butter cups (Nugget Markets’ bulk foods department)

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two baking sheets. In a medium–sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, beat together the sugars, butter and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla, egg and water; then stir in the dry ingredients, blending well. Stir in the mini chocolate peanut butter cups. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten each cookie to about ½–inch thick. Bake the cookies for 7 to 9 minutes, or until they’re set and you can smell chocolate. Remove them from the oven and cool on a rack.
