Combine dry ingredients, then slowly add to butter/egg mixture.
Carefully stir in the peanut butter baking pieces - you don't want to break them.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned.
Cool slightly then place on wire racks to cool completely.

Notes:
I used unsalted butter and butter flavored crisco.
Original recipe called for 1/2 c packed light brown sugar.
I used a large egg, at room temperature.
The baking pieces are like miniature peanut butter cups.
I baked on parchment paper for 12 minutes.
