Triple Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies

Instructions & Method:

1. Preheat Your Oven:
   Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cookie removal.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and brown sugar. Use a hand mixer or whisk to blend these together until smooth and creamy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until well incorporated.
3. Add Dry Ingredients:
   In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and pinch of salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
4. Incorporate the Reese’s:
   Fold in the chopped Reese’s cups, Reese’s pieces, and Reese’s chips (and optional chocolate chips) until evenly distributed. The more Reese’s, the better!
5. Shape the Cookies:
   Use a spoon or cookie scoop to form small balls of dough (about 1-1.5 inches in diameter). Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each ball. Gently press each ball down with a fork or your fingers to slightly flatten them.
6. Bake:
   Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes or until the edges of the cookies start to turn golden brown. The center should still look slightly soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
7. Cool:
   Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Formation of These Cookies:

The unique part of these cookies is their combination of the classic peanut butter cookie base with Reese’s products. The creation process starts just like a traditional peanut butter cookie, but the addition of chopped Reese’s adds another layer of indulgence. The Reese’s cups give a creamy peanut butter filling, the Reese’s pieces provide that candy crunch, and the Reese’s chips add a smooth chocolatey flavor. The result is a cookie that’s a trifecta of peanut butter and chocolate goodness!

These Triple Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies are perfect for anyone who loves the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, but taken to a whole new level with the variety of Reese’s products. They are soft, chewy, and bursting with rich flavors in every bite. Whether you’re baking them for a special occasion or just to satisfy a sweet craving, these cookies are sure to become a favorite in your dessert repertoire.
