Description

These Crumbl Muddy Buddy Cookies are a delicious twist on classic peanut butter cookies, featuring a soft, chewy texture topped with melted milk chocolate, crunchy Muddy Buddy pieces, and a dusting of powdered sugar. Perfectly sweet and flavorful, these cookies are easy to make and ideal for anyone who loves the combination of peanut butter and chocolate with a fun, crunchy finish.

Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Dough

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Toppings

  • 6 oz milk chocolate, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup Muddy Buddy pieces
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugars: Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer, cream together the softened butter, creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add salt, baking soda, and all-purpose flour to the wet mixture. Mix until just combined, ensuring no dry flour pockets remain.
  5. Shape Cookies: Portion the dough into 1/4 cup-sized balls. Place 6 balls on the prepared baking sheet, then gently press each ball with the palm of your hand to form thick disks about the size of a hockey puck.
  6. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 11-12 minutes. The cookies will have a crackly surface, and the centers may appear slightly underdone but will firm up as they cool.
  7. Cool Cookies: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5-10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Prepare Chocolate Topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chopped milk chocolate and vegetable oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
  9. Decorate Cookies: Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of the melted chocolate over each cookie. Immediately top with a few Muddy Buddy pieces so they stick to the chocolate.
  10. Add Powdered Sugar: Using a fine sieve, sprinkle powdered sugar evenly over the tops of the cookies for a delicate finish.
  11. Serve: Enjoy the cookies at room temperature or warm for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use creamy peanut butter for the best texture in the dough.
  • Do not overbake the cookies; slightly underdone centers will result in a soft, chewy cookie once cooled.
  • Allow cookies to cool completely before storing to maintain their texture.
  • If you don’t have Muddy Buddy pieces, substitute with crushed peanut butter cereal or peanut butter coated snacks.
  • The powdered sugar adds a nice visual touch and a slight sweetness balance to the rich toppings.
