Peanut Butter Cup Muffins
These mini peanut butter cups from Trader Joe’s are too adorable. Great on their own, I used these instead of chocolate chips in my muffin recipe. Fantastic when it’s nice and melty right out of the oven!
ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/3 cup oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups (almost one container) Trader Joe’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prep a muffin pan with liners.
In a bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add the egg, milk, oil and vanilla. Stir til combined, don’t got too far, just until it’s mixed, or you’ll get a rubbery muffin. EW.
Now stir in the mini peanut butter cups. Spoon into your prepped muffin pan. Bake for 15-17 minutes.
When you bite into them the flavor combination is soooo good. Don’t eat them all.

That is why I made them. I didn’t want to eat the whole container myself!!

Um, peanut butter is my weakness. I’m a “insert spoon into jar, remove, and insert into mouth” kind of girl. This recipe sounds amazing. Looks like another something I can bring into my office to fatten them up
