Peanut Butter Cookie Cups
I love peanut butter and chocolate together. But this isn't exactly news to you now is it? I'd think not.I suppose my love of cookies isn't new news either, huh? Put it all together and I am like putty in your hands. When I decided to make desserts for my sisters graduation party I knew I wanted to make something that met all of the basic dessert food groups: peanut butter, chocolate, and cookies.
These were a hit. They were gone so fast I had to hide one to take a picture of it. They were truly delicious. I loved how the peanut butter cup was in every bite. The smooth creamy peanut butter center was definitely a bonus. If you are looking for an easy cookie try these- they are so good.
