Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies!!!

· 23 Comments

I think most of us can agree that peanut butter cookies are delicious, but Reese’s Peanut Butter cookies are out of this world!!!
These cookies are not your average peanut butter cookie, they’re soft and buttery with little bites of chocolate mixed in.  So, go ahead and indulge a little!!! 😉

For cookies you will need:

¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup dark brown sugar
½ cup confectioner’s sugar
½ cup unsalted butter
½ cup shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 cups cake flour
¾ cup AP flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ cup peanut butter
1 cup Reese’s mini peanut butter cups, divided
¼ cup whole milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets.  Using the food processor, take ½ cup of the Reese’s mini peanut butter cups and pulse. Set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the sugars, butter, and shortening.  Mix on a low speed until well combined.  Add vanilla and egg to the sugar/butter mixture, beat again until incorporated.  In a separate large bowl combine the flours, baking soda and baking powder.  Slowly add the flour mixture to sugar/butter mixture in three separate batches on low.

Add the peanut butter, the ½ cup of chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups, and the remaining ½ cup of whole peanut butter cups to the cookie batter.  The mixture should be crumbly.  Slowly add about ¼ cup of whole milk, until the mixture comes together and resembles a soft dough.

Scoop out round teaspoon amounts of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets.  In total, this recipe should make about 3 dozen cookies. Taking a fork, gently press down on the cookies creating a crisscross pattern. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, and let cool on a cooling rack before serving.  Enjoy!!


With Love,

    Delicious, delicious, and delicious again. A couple of cookies and a really cold glass of milk would be over the top.
