🥜 Ingredients
Cookie Dough Base
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Triple Reese’s Mix-Ins
- ½ cup Reese’s Pieces
- ½ cup Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
- ½ cup chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light, fluffy, and smooth.
2. Add the Wet Ingredients
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined. The dough should look creamy and rich.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated — do not overmix.
4. Fold in the Reese’s
Gently fold in the Reese’s Pieces, peanut butter chips, and chopped peanut butter cups until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
5. Shape the Cookies
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough, roll into balls, and place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your hand or the back of a spoon.
6. Bake
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look soft.
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
🔥 Methods & Baking Tips
- For softer cookies: Bake closer to 10 minutes
- For crisp edges: Bake the full 12 minutes
