Description
Deliciously soft and chewy cookies packed with creamy peanut butter, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and chunks of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, blend creamy peanut butter with granulated and brown sugars until smooth and velvety, approximately 2 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition until fully blended.
- Stir in vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt until just combined.
- Gently fold semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups into the batter.
- Scoop dough into 1.5-inch diameter balls and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with your palm.
- Press additional chocolate chips on top of each cookie ball for garnish.
- Bake cookies for 10 to 12 minutes until edges turn golden and centers remain soft.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to one week or freeze for up to three months.
Notes
- For a more intense peanut butter flavor, use chunky peanut butter.
- Ensure cookies are stored in an airtight container to maintain softness.
