🍽 Step-by-Step Instructions
🔥 Step 1: Preheat & Prep
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2️⃣ Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
💡 For crispier edges, use a light-colored metal baking sheet.
🥣 Step 2: Cream the Butter & Sugars
1️⃣ In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
2️⃣ Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
💡 Mixing well ensures soft, chewy cookies!
🥄 Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients
1️⃣ In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
2️⃣ Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
💡 Don’t overmix! Overworking the dough can make cookies dense.
🍫 Step 4: Fold in the Reese’s Goodness
1️⃣ Gently fold in Reese’s Pieces, Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips, and chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
💡 For an extra gooey texture, freeze the chopped Reese’s Cups for 5 minutes before mixing in.
🍪 Step 5: Shape & Arrange
1️⃣ Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough, roll into balls, and place on the prepared baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
2️⃣ Gently flatten the dough balls slightly with your hand or the back of a spoon.
💡 Flattening helps the cookies spread evenly!
🔥 Step 6: Bake Until Perfect
1️⃣ Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
2️⃣ Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
💡 They may look slightly underbaked—this keeps them soft!
🍽 Step 7: Enjoy!
1️⃣ Serve warm with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
2️⃣ Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
💡 For long-term storage, freeze the cookies for up to 3 months!
