Step 2

Cream butter and sugars until thick and smooth (about 1–2 minutes).

Step 3

Mix in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Add dry ingredients and mix just until combined. The dough will be very thick and slightly sticky.

Fold in peanut butter cups (and chocolate chips if using).

Step 6

Scoop 2-2 tablespoons of dough per cookie. Roll lightly and stack dough tall — do not flatten.

Let cool on the pan for 10 minutes to set the outside while keeping the center gooey.
