The perfect peanut butter cookie just got turned inside out and filled with chocolate!
Peanut Butter Cookie Cups are so easy to make and even easier to eat!
I love this recipe so much and if you have a mini muffin pan you already are half way there!
If you love peanut butter cookies you will love this new spin on the classic.
Slightly crispy outside with a softer chewy middle and filled to the brim with ganache!
Â
You will notice the recipe makes close to 4dz cookies
While this may seem like a lot and you may be tempted to halve the recipe I urge you to make the entire recipe!
These little bites start disappearing almost immediately
Â
Easily freeze the baked and filled cookies
Or just bake the excess dough into classic peanut butter cookies, by sprinkling the tops with granulated sugar before baking and give them the old fork indent!

Total Time
25 minutes
Ingredients
- Vegan Butter 6 Tablespoons (85g)
- Creamy Peanut Butter ¾ cup (180g)
- Light Brown Sugar packed 1¼ cup (255g)
- Plant Milk 6 Tablespoons (90ml)
- Vanilla Extract 2 teaspoons (10ml)
- Egg Replacer 2 teaspoons (4.8g) * I am using Bob’s Red Mil
- All Purpose Flour 2 cup (250g)
- Baking Soda 1 teaspoon
- Salt ½ teaspoon
- ½ Vegan Ganache Recipe
- Peanuts finely chopped ¼ cup
Instructions
- Cream the vegan butter, peanut butter and brown sugar until well blended, no need for light and fluffy here~ about 1 minute on high speed.
- Add the vanilla extract to the plant milk and then add only half of it slowly to the creaming mixture scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl often for an even mix. Reserve the other half for last
- Sift the flour, egg replacer, baking soda and salt and then add it to the creaming mixture while blending on low until all incorporated.
- With a #100 Scoop drop rounded scoops into each cavity.
- Press the dough with your fingers so it spreads to the sides of each cavity
- Bake for 12 minutes or when they are light golden brown
- Allow to cool in the tins slightly then unmold onto a cooling rack, flip them over and then I like to press them slightly to make a bigger indent to fit more chocolate in the centers!
- Once the cookies are cooled~ fill the sunken centers with vegan ganache and sprinkle with chopped peanuts
