I'm a peanut butter lover. Natural, creamy, almond, you name it and I eat it by the spoon. If you're like me, these Peanut Butter Cookie Cups are for you!
They are soft, chewy, and full of peanut butter flavour. As soon as the cookie cups were finished baking, I placed a Reese's peanut butter cup into the middle of each.
Personally, Reese's is my all-time favourite sweet. Chocolate? Peanut butter? Together? It doesn't get better than that. If you love the combination as much as I do, you have to try these cups.
