Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups

We had some leftover sugar cookie dough from making the Minecraft Portal Cookies, so I decided to use them for Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups!

I placed 2 T of dough into mini muffin cups and baked in a preheated 350-degree Fahrenheit oven for 13-15 minutes.

Once done, with the back of a spoon, I created a "cup" to pour melted peanut butter (1/2 cup microwaved on high for 30 seconds), and sprinkled on chocolate chips.

Easy and delish!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

For some reason we had a large amount of peanut butter jars in our pantry, so I decided to make Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies!

Is there any better combo than peanut butter and chocolate?  If you love this combo, you'll love these cookies.  They turned out crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, with just enough peanut butter flavor to not overpower the entire cookie.

Delish!
