Giant Peanut Butter Cup Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift together the flour, salt and baking soda; set aside.
• Cream together the butter, sugar, peanut butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg, vanilla and milk. Add the flour mixture; mix well. Shape into 40 balls and place each into an ungreased mini muffin pan.
• Bake at 375 degrees for about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately press a mini peanut butter cup into each ball. Cool and carefully remove from pan.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°.
• Combine flour, soda and salt.
• In mixer, beat the butter and sugar until creamy.
• Beat in vanilla and egg.
• Stir in flour mixture.
• Measure out 1/4 cups of dough and place on ungreased cookie sheet (4 cookies per sheet--these are big cookies) Cut each peanut butter cup into 4 pieces and push 8 pieces into top of each cookie, flattening the dough a bit.
• Bake until cookies are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
• (The centers will still be a bit pale and soft).
• Let cookies cool for at least 1 minute on baking sheet before moving them to rack to cool.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
• Prepare the shortbread: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the vanilla and mix to combine.
• Reduce the speed to low. Add the flour and salt and mix until evenly combined. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and press into an even layer. Prick the shortbread all over with a fork.
• Bake until the shortbread is baked through, set and lightly golden, 22 to 26 minutes. Cool completely, and remove the outer ring from the springform pan. Place on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet.
• Wipe out the bowl of the mixer, and make the peanut butter filling: Using the paddle attachment, cream the butter, peanut butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the vanilla and salt and mix to combine.
• Spread on top of the cooled shortbread, leaving it slightly more mounded in the center than at the edges. Transfer to the refrigerator while you make the glaze.
• Place a medium heat-safe bowl over a medium pot of simmering water. Add the chocolate, coconut oil and cream to the bowl and heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is melted and fluid. (Alternatively, the mixture can be microwaved in a microwave-safe container in 15-second bursts, stirring after each burst until the mixture is fully melted.) Cool for 5 minutes.
• Pour the glaze over the cooled cookie, using a small offset spatula to help coat the edges evenly as needed. If necessary, you can collect the glaze that runs off the cookie onto the baking sheet and pour back over to glaze any missed spots.
• Once the cookie is fully glazed, use a large spatula to transfer it to a platter. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill completely for 45 minutes before slicing with a serrated knife and serving. Store, covered, at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream peanut butter, butter, sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in eggs, baking soda, vanilla and corn syrup. Add oats and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and M&M's. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour., Preheat oven to 350°. Drop by 1/4 cupfuls 3 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake 14-18 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Beat butter, sugar and peanut butter in medium bowl until creamy.
• Add egg and vanilla; beat well.
• Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; add to butter mixture, blending well.
• Drop dough by level 1/4 cup measurements onto ungreased cookie sheets, 3 cookies per sheet.
• Cookies will spread while baking.
• Push about 7 pieces of peanut butter cup into each cookies, flattening cookie slightly.
• Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until ligh golden brown around the edges.
• Centers will be pale and slightly soft.
• Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet.
• Remove to wire rack; cool completely.

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine sugars, margarine, peanut butter, vanilla and egg; beat well.
• Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup and level off.
• Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; mix well.
• If you are making the large cookies, it helps to chill the dough for an hour or so at this point, before shaping. It seems to make a firmer cookie--less likely to break. If you aren't concerned about that, you can skip this step.
• Shape about 1/4 cup dough (for 3-inch cookie) into a ball and place 4 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet (6 per sheet).
• Bake at 375° for 13-16 minutes.
• Remove from cookie sheet and cool completely on wire rack.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Into large bowl, break up cookie dough.
• Stir in reeses pieces,m&m's, and peanuts.
• Drop dough by scant 1/4 cupfuls 3 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.

• Bake 11-15 minutes or until light golden brown.
• Immediately top each cookie with 1 peanut butter cup; press lightly into dough.
• Cool 5 minutes; remove from cookie sheets.
• TIP: let the cookies stand about 3 hours or until the peanut butter cups are set before storing them in a covered container.
