Ingredients

½ cup butter
½ cup white sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ cup peanut butter
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
⅔ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
15 miniature chocolate covered peanut butter cups, unwrapped

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl, cream the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and peanut butter together. Stir in the egg and vanilla. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the creamed mixture.
Drop by tablespoonfuls into the cups of a muffin tin. Cups should be about 1/4 full. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from oven and immediately press a peanut butter cup into the center of each cookie. Allow the cookies to cool completely before removing from their pan.
