1 cup butter
1 cup Domino's dark brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup Jif peanut butter
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 bag bite sized Reese's peanut butter cups
In a mixer, combine butter, brown sugar, white sugar and eggs--beat until smooth. Add peanut butter and beat. Add baking soda, salt and vanilla--mix well. Slowly add the flour and mix. Roll the batter into walnut sized balls and place one ball in each space on a greased mini-muffin tin. Press your thumb in the center of each ball to make a space for the peanut butter cups, but don't add the peanut butter cups yet. Bake at 375 degrees for 9 minutes--remove from oven, place one unwrapped peanut butter cup in each well of the cookies. Let them cool 10 minutes before removing from tins.
