Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
- 12 cup granulated sugar
- 12 cup packed brown sugar
- 12 cup natural-style peanut butter
- 14 cup shortening
- 14 cup butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 14 cups all-purpose flour
- 34 teaspoon baking soda
- 12 teaspoon baking powder
- 14 teaspoon salt
- 48 miniature peanut butter cups (frozen)
- Mix sugars, peanut butter, shortening, butter, egg, and vanilla in large bowl.
- Stir in remaining ingredients.
- Cover and refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Remove dough from refrigerator and roll into small walnut-sized balls.
- Place balls into greased miniature muffin pans; place an unwrapped, frozen peanut butter cup into the center of each ball, pressing down until the dough comes all the way up the sides of the candy.
- Bake 8-9 minutes.
- Let cool completely before removing from pan.
- Alternatives: You can use Hershey's kisses or Rolo candies instead of the peanut butter cups.
- Although I've done the Rolo candies in a sugar cookie dough as well as a chocolate cookie dough.
