Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 sticks 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and not hot
  • 1 cup of smooth peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup of dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 8 oz of Reese's Pieces candy
  • 3/4 cup of semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the melted butter and peanut butter and use a whisk to whisk until smooth.
  • Add the white and brown sugars to the bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Next, add in the eggs and the vanilla and give the mixture a good whisk until the wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the peanut butter mixture.
  • Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to stir in the dry ingredients. Stir until the flour is almost fully incorporated into the dough--there should still be visible streaks of flour showing.
  • Pour the Reese's Pieces and chocolate chips into the bowl and gently fold until all the ingredients are fully incorporated, and no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
  • Scoop the cookie dough (2 tablespoon size or #30 cookie scoop) onto the baking sheets. Leave a couple of inches between each cookie to account for spreading.
  • Bake at 350° for 13-15 min, until the edges are set, but the centers still look a little gooey.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them sit on the sheet pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Serve and enjoy!
