Makes roughly 12-30 cookies depending on size. You can make them into 1 inch balls or multiple inches wide piles. Very crumbly and delicious any time, especially warm out of the oven.

Based on Taste of Home’s Homemade Peanut Butter Cups.
These are addictive. I do them in a silicone mini muffin tin so that they are easier to get out and don’t result in accidentally eating paper. You can also do them in any muffin tray or cupcake liner, or on any movable flat surface (such as parchment paper on a baking sheet or plate) that will fit in your refrigerator or freezer.

I recommend chocolate chips, but you can use any additions you want. Make as mini or full sized muffins, both are delicious.
Silicone muffin tins make getting muffins out much easier, but are more annoying to clean. You could also use paper muffin liners/cupcake cups, or grease (with oil, butter, or a cooking non-stick spray).

I think this is much better as raw batter than baked cake. Therefore, the recipe is quartered – closer to a single or double sized snack than a whole cake.
However, flour is a raw ingredient which if contaminated could make you sick, so eat at your own risk.
