Ingredients:

Serving

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
3/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup milk
1 (4 oz) semisweet chocolate or 1 (4 oz) milk chocolate, cut into 18 pieces

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line eighteen 2 1/2-inch muffin cups with paper baking liners.
In bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
In large bowl, with mixer at medium speed, beat peanut butter and shortening until combined.
Add sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
