Base Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
Toppings (Optional)
- Chocolate chips or your favorite toppings, as desired
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the cookie cups.
- Prepare Muffin Tin: Spray a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking and make removal easy after baking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of natural peanut butter and 1 cup of brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Form Cookie Cups: Scoop the peanut butter mixture into the muffin tin compartments. Press down in the center of each scoop to create small indentations for holding toppings later.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown, indicating the cookie cups are done.
- Cool and Fill: Allow the cookie cups to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Once slightly cooled, fill the indentations with chocolate chips or your preferred toppings for added flavor.
Notes
- Ensure the peanut butter is natural and smooth for the best texture and mixing.
- Do not overbake; cookie cups should be soft and slightly chewy with golden edges.
- These cookie cups can be customized with various fillings such as caramel, nuts, or different types of chocolate chips.
- Use a small cookie scoop for uniform portion sizes.
- Store cookie cups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
