Peanut butter, oatmeal, and chocolate chunks are a killer trio in these SUPER soft and chewy oatmeal chocolate chunk cookie cups! You won't be able to stop at only one.
Servings 1 -1/2 dozen cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened (1 stick)
- 1 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1-1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1-1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Grease two muffin tins and set aside.
- Place butter and sugar in the bowl of a large stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Add peanut butter, egg, and vanilla to bowl and mix until smooth.
- Add oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt to mixer and mix on medium speed until dough comes together. (dough will be slightly sticky) Gently stir in chocolate chunks.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop dough into 2-in balls and press into prepared muffin cups. Bake cookie cups at 350F 10-11 minutes or until edges are golden (cookies will appear underdone in the middle---this ok) Cool cookie cups 5 minutes in muffin tin, then transfer to a wire cooling rack. Enjoy cookies warm while the chocolate is gooey!
