Suggestions and Variations

  • Maintain the peanut butter cups intact. For those who use your mixer to beat within the peanut butter cups, they have a tendency to interrupt aside.

In a pinch, fold within the sweet by hand.
  • Don’t overbake. The trick to conserving these cake combine cookies tender and chewy is to depart them barely underbaked. Take them out after they’re simply set on the edges, and mushy (however not shiny or moist) within the middle.
  • Relaxation on the baking sheet. Let the freshly baked cookies relaxation on the baking sheet for five minutes earlier than you progress them to a wire rack. This manner they’ll set a bit earlier than you carry them.
  • Use brownie combine as a substitute. Make a variation of brownie mix cookies full of peanut butter cups.
