Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking your cookie cups.
- Prepare Muffin Tin: Spray a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray to prevent the cookies from sticking and to ensure easy removal.
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of natural peanut butter and 1 cup of brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Form Cookie Cups: Scoop the peanut butter and sugar mixture into the prepared muffin tin compartments. Press the mixture down to create indentations in the center, which will later hold your toppings.
- Bake: Bake the cookie cups in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown, indicating they are cooked through.
- Cool and Fill: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the cookie cups to cool for 5 minutes. Once cooled slightly, fill the indentations with chocolate chips or your favorite toppings for added flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute natural peanut butter with any other nut or seed butter if desired.
- For a softer cookie, slightly reduce the baking time.
- Try adding different toppings like chopped nuts, dried fruits, or caramel sauce for variety.
- Store cookie cups in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
