Who doesn’t love cookies and brownies and peanut butter cups? Have you ever thought it would be great if we combined all of them together into one awesome delicious treat? Me too! So, I bring you a super easy way to make Peanut Butter Cookie Brownie Cups.
This is such an easy recipe. If you never bake anything more than refrigerated cookie dough, then you can make this! You might could even find refrigerated brownie batter (do they make that?) and not have to mix up anything. Just squish it all together in the muffin tins, bake, and you’re done! Just make sure to serve them with a big glass of milk.
You know what else these would be good for? A bake sale! Then those people who can’t decide if they want a cookie or a brownie can have both in one treat! I’m so making these for our upcoming Halloween festivals for my kids’ schools! So much easier than icing cupcakes!
Your kids will love making these, too. Molly, my preschool extraordinaire and who is already on her way to being a future foodie blogger, loves to cook with me and take pictures as we cook. My phone is so full of her adorable foodie pictures. I just can’t delete any of them.
This was so easy that she made up the brownie batter and then helped me put everything together in the muffin tins. Her favorite part is cracking the eggs for the brownie batter.
I just ate one these for breakfast, and I got to thinking. If I had to choose between Butterfinger or peanut butter cups, I always pick the Butterfinger. So now I’m wondering how awesome would this be be if you used those new Butterfinger cups instead of regular peanut butter cups? Oh my! I think I’m going to try that next!
Wasn’t that easy? Here’s the recipe:

…..and you live where???? Seriously, do all of these wonderful ideas come from your imagination? If so, you are blessed woman! Pinning and SU coming up!
Those look decadently dangerous!
All I can say is WOW this look absolutely AMAZING and I could easily put down a lot of these. Pinned and tweeted…Nom Nom!
Wow, these look so good and they’re so simple! I’m off to the grocery store to get supplies. Stumbled! 😀
What a work of art! Pinning.
WOW, my older son, age 33, would LOVE this recipe as he’s always loved Reese’s peanut butter cups. FAB photos snapped by your young girl, Molly–BRAVO! thanks for sharing… I want to bake next week. Sarah in Minneapolis
Would this recipe work with a mini muffin pan and mini Reece’s cups?
Oh I’m sure it would. Just reduce baking time. I’d probably start checking around 8 minutes to see if the brownie part is done.
would any type of cookie dough work?

Hi Claudia,
I’m sure any cookie dough will work.
Will this recipe work with cupcake liners?
I’m sure it will. The PB cups are hidden inside, so they should peel right off from the cookie/brownie.
