Peanut Butter Cup Stuffed Snickerdoodles

Author Cathy Trochelman

Ingredients

  • 2 3/4 c. flour
  • 2 tsp. cream of tartar
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 c. butter softened
  • 1 1/2 c. sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • For Topping:
  • 3 Tbsp. sugar + 1 Tbsp. cinnamon
  • 1 package miniature Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Instructions

  • Mix flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt.
  • Cream butter, adding 1 1/2 c. sugar gradually.
  • Add beaten eggs to butter/sugar mixture. Mix well.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients.
  • Chill dough at least 1 hour.
  • Shape chilled dough into balls (approx. 1 inch)
  • Roll in cinnamon/sugar mixture and place in well-greased miniature muffin tins.
  • Bake at 350 degrees 10 minutes or until set in center.
  • Immediately press one peanut butter cup into each cookie; cool slightly in muffin tins before removing to wire rack.
  • When peanut butter cups are partially set but still gooey, top each with a red or green m&m (I used Gingerbread m&m's but any kind would work!)
