1/2 t. salt

1/2 C. butter, softened

1/2 C. packed light brown sugar

1/2 C. granulated sugar

Preheat oven to 375°F. degrees. Line mini-muffin cups with paper liners.

In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking soda and salt and set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, peanut butter, egg and vanilla with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, scraping down sides when necessary. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and beat until blended. Drop tablespoons of dough in each prepared muffin cup. Do not flatten.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until puffed and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and immediately press a peanut butter cup onto each cookie. Cool completely in muffin pan.
