Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter Slightly softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 & ¾ cup flour
  • 3 tablespoon corn starch
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • cup semi sweet chocolate chips more for topping
  • 9 peanut butter cups

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F, then line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat.
  • In a medium bowl, cream the butter and both sugars together. I did so using my spatula.
    ½ cup butter, ½ cup brown sugar, ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • Add in the vanilla and egg yolk and mix everything is smooth and well incorporated.
    1 egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Add in the dry ingredients over the wet ingredient mixture, starting with the flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt. Stir just until combined.
    1 & ¾ cup flour, 3 tablespoon corn starch, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, then using a large cookie scoop, scoop out the cookie dough, split each ball in half, flatten it between the palm of your hand and place the peanut butter cut in the center. Top with the other half and seal the edges.
    ⅔ cup semi sweet chocolate chips, 9 peanut butter cups
  • Place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Don't worry if they look underdone or gooey in the middle. That's what we want, they will continue to bake even after you pull them out of the oven to cool.
  • Top the cookies with extra chocolate chips as soon as they come out of the oven, cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack.
