Delicious Reese's Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe to Try

Ingredients

Servings:
14
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup Reese's peanut butter cups (chopped)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

8 steps

  1. Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a large bowl, mix together creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    Use a hand mixer for best results.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

    Sifting the flour can help avoid lumps.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry mixture to the peanut butter mixture, stirring until just combined.

    Do not overmix.
  5. Add Peanut Butter Cups

    Fold in chopped Reese's peanut butter cups and chocolate chips if using.

    Reserve some pieces for topping.
  6. Shape Cookies

    Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Leave space between cookies as they will spread.
  7. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until edges are golden.

    Do not overbake; cookies will firm up while cooling.
  8. Cool Down

    Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

    This helps maintain their shape.
