Peanut Butter Cookies with Chopped Peanut Butter Cups

Love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter? Who doesn't? This peanut butter cookies recipe is like a peanut butter cup in a cookie.

A soft peanut butter cookie base is dotted with chopped peanut butter cups. Yum!

You can find oat flour in most large supermarkets or a natural foods store. It's okay to substitute all-purpose flour for the oat flour, if you can't find it, but the oat flour makes these peanut butter cookies really tender.

  2. Cream together the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar and honey with an electric mixer. Add in eggs, beating until smooth.
