Peanut Butter Cookie Cups

So I was rather lonely today because I was dog sitting for a friend. I got a little crazy when I came home and make like 50 cookie cups. My theory about why this happened is loneliness is a form of mania, and I see mania as a driving force of ambition and creativity. Here, my ambition was making extremely unhealthy food for people to enjoy. Others do more productive things, such as making art and writing.

Cookie cups can come in many different forms. Here I present 2 'bases', one peanut butter and one chocolate chip. The chocolate chip one is a pre-made mix... I'm not necessarily the biggest fan of pre-made food, but it was in the refrigerator and I don't each chocolate anyway. The peanut butter is the one for me :)

Peanut Butter Cookie (Cup) Recipe
I didn't actually use measurements soo... these are estimates.
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup (light) brown sugar
2/3 cup Skippy's chunky peanut butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1.5 Tbs. pure vanilla extract
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbs. milk

additives for bedazzling: Reese's peanut butter cups, any kind of chocolate (I used Toblerone), marshmallows, nothing, Reese's pieces, your mom

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Now you won't be making a batter for your chocolate chip cookie cups (why? because I said so!). Prepare yourself mentally to use the pre-made batter.

Now for your peanut butter cookies! So exciting!

Beat your eggs and add them to a bowl. Warm your butter in the microwave for ~20 seconds and add it to the bowl along with your peanut butter, milk, and pure vanilla extract. Mix them around.
Add the brown sugar to the batter.

Add your dry ingredients to your batter, namely, the flour, white sugar, baking soda and salt.
Finish your cookie cup batter. Try to make sure it is as even as possible.
Add your cookie cups to a baking pan that is either greased well or lined with muffin/cupcake wrappers. You should put in enough batter so that the cookie reaches roughly 3/4 the height of the well. Also, I recommend using an ice cream scooper.


Place muffin pan in the oven for 10 minutes, or at least until the cookies are cooked and slightly mushy in the middle.
Bedazzle the cookie cups as you like while they are still warm and sticky on the top.

This is exactly why you don't want to know my proportions. You will end up having enough food for 50 people.
