Reeses Peanut Butter Miniature Cookies

Okay, I just made several dozen of these and these are my new favorite cookie!  I got the recipe from thesisterscafe.com and you can see a picture of them here  and get the recipe as well

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
1 cup butter (2 sticks) softened to room temp
2/3 cup peanut butter (crunchy or creamy)
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2  2/3 cup flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
48 miniature Reese's Peanut Butter cups, unwrapped

Cream butter, peanut butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla together until smooth.  Combine flour, soda and salt and add to butter mixture.
form dough into 1 inch balls and place in mini muffin pan (leave in balls; do not press down)
Bake at 350 for 10 -11 min (I timed mine at 9 1/2 minutes and they came out PERFECT)
Just cook until they start to brown and then take them out.
Immediately press a miniature peanut butter cup into the cookie until the top is even with the top of the cookie.  Let cookies cool in pan for at least 10 min before transferring.

Sandee's tips for perfect cookies:  Spray the mini muffin pan with Pam.  Bake 9 1/2 min.  After putting the reeses peanut butter cups in the cookies, then I put them in the refrigerator for 10 min, then take them out and they will come out of pan perfectly!
They actually taste better after letting them set a couple of hours!
These are very easy to make, you make 24 at a time, and they taste so yummy and look so cute!
Perfect for showers and birthday parties and finger food!
LOVE IT!
