Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

1/2 c Peanut butter

1/4 c Vegetable oil

1 c Brown sugar

1 ts Vanilla extract

1 lg Egg

1 1/4 c All-purpose flour (or less)

2 ts Baking soda

24 sm Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Cream together the peanut butter and vegetable oil in a bowl. Add brown sugar, vanilla, and egg. Beat well.

Add flour (reserve 1/4 - 1/2 cup) and baking soda. Blend thoroughly. Add enough extra flour so that you can shape dough into balls, slightly larger than 1-inch. Press a Peanut Butter Cup into each ball, covering the cup completely, and place on an ungreased baking sheet.

Flatten with a fork, bake about 10 - 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
