Sweets for My Sweetheart

The other day Mother was looking for a little treat to take to her Visiting Teacher Ladies and found this on the Internet at VeryBestBaking.com. I’m not into a lot of little sweets but I must say that these are really good so I thought that I would pass it along.

Here’s the recipe:

36 Nestle Butterfinger Hearts or Nestle Crunch Hearts unwrapped

½ cup Granulated sugar

½ cup packed brown sugar

½ cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened

½ cup creamy peanut butter

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour

¾ teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 375
Beat granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter and peanut in large mixer bowl until combined; beat in egg and vanilla extract. Beat in flour and baking soda.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoon into ungreased mini-muffin cups.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, remove from oven; gently press 1 Nestle Heart into each cup. Cool in pans on wire racks for at least 10 minutes. Remove cookies from muffin cups with a butter knife. Serve warm or cool completely on wire racks.

Happy Valentines Day
