How to Make 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cup Christmas Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 24-count mini-muffin pan with non-stick spray.

One at a time, roll each Ready-to-Bake Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Square into a ball. Rotate rolling into red and green sanding sugar, or Christmas sprinkles, and place into each mini-muffin spot.

Bake for 12 minutes.

In the meantime, unwrap 24 mini-Reese’s cups and set aside.

Remove the pan from the oven and immediately press unwrapped Reese’s down into the center of the cookie.

Let cool before removing from the pan.

Pan – I use a 24 cup non-stick mini muffin pan, works like a charm! You could also use two 12 cup non-stick mini muffin pans.

Sprinkles – Sanding sugar and nonpareils work best.

Non-Stick Spray – Even if you are using a non-stick pan, I recommend spraying it. It helps you easily remove them. They should easily come out just by pulling up on them with your fingers. If you skip non-stick spray you might have to use a knife to pop them loose and that leaves an indent in the side of the cookie.
