My whole life is making delicious nut butters. Is it any wonder that my favorite type of cookie is a peanut butter cookie? I do like to add a little variety to my favorite treats, though. Chopped white chocolate peanut butter cups are a welcome addition to this White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies recipe. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Everybody’s favorite part of making cookies is getting to snack on the dough. It’s so good I decided that it should be the main event, not just a background character. My Edible White Chocolate Sugar Cookie dough is made with JUSTIN’S® Vanilla Almond Butter and is great for when you want to eat a guilt-free treat.
