recipe: peanut butter puddles

i say this about a lot of recipes, but i do love these cookies. they fulfill all of my fav criteria: 1) easy; 2) cute; & 3) delicious. perfect for bringing to a party or a cookie exchange mmm. these were taken from Peanut Butter Cup Cookies from allrecipes.com.

ingredients list:

- 1 & 3/4 cups flour

- 1/2 tsp salt

- 1 tsp baking soda

- 1/2 cup butter, softened

- 1/2 cup granulated sugar

- 1/2 cup peanut butter

- 1/2 cup brown sugar

- 1 egg, beaten

- 1 tsp vanilla extract

- 2 tbsp milk

- 40 miniature Reeses peanut butter cups, unwrapped

to make: preheat oven to 375 degrees. sift together the flour, salt, and baking soda. cream together the butter, granulated & brown sugar, and peanut butter until smooth. beat in the egg, vanilla, and milk. little by little add in the flour mixture, until completely combined. shape into 40 balls and place each into an ungreased mini muffin pan (the balls should be about 1 & 1/4 inch big).

bake at 375 degrees for about 8 minutes. remove from oven and immediately press a peanut butter cup into each ball (do it slowly or the edges of the cookie will crack). the top of the PB cup will melt after it sits in the cookie for about a minute - this is the time to add sprinkles. 

cool then carefully remove from pan.
