To make these sugar cookie cups, I started by dumping some Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix into a large mixing bowl with some softened butter and eggs.
I used an electric mixer to combine the ingredients until a sticky dough formed.
Then I added some colourful sprinkles to the bowl.
I continued mixing with the electric mixer until the sprinkles were fully incorporated into the cookie dough.
Then I spooned the cookie dough into well greased mini muffin tins, filling the cups about 3/4 of the way.
I baked the cookie cups until they were golden brown around the edges.
Then I placed Reese’s mini cup in the center of each cookie cup and gently pressed them down into the cookies.
I used half milk chocolate peanut butter cups and half white chocolate peanut butter cups.
I allowed the cookie cups to cool off before removing them from the pans.
If you try to remove the cookie cups from the pan while they are still warm they won’t hold their shape.
These sugar cookie cups are soft and chewy.
The mini peanut butter cups make these cookies the perfect treat for peanut butter lovers.
