Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the butter and sugars. Beat for 3-4 minutes, until creamed and light.
- Add the eggs and vanilla, and mix well.
- Next, sprinkle in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt to the other mixture and mix on low speed, just until combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, white chocolate chips and Reese’s Pieces. Give them a quick sir so they’re evenly distributed.
- Mix in 2 cups of the chips into the cookie batter, and place the remaining chips aside in reserve. (You’ll use them later!)
- Refrigerate 30-60 minutes. This dough is extremely soft, so refrigerating it will give it some time to firm up and not melt in your hands.
- When the batter has finished chilling, preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat, and set aside.
- Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of cookie dough for each cookie and shape into balls by rolling between the palms of your hands.
- Once the dough is shaped, place the balls on the prepared baking sheet about 2” apart.
- Press a few of the reserved chocolate and peanut butter chips into the top of each cookie.
- When all the cookies are on the baking sheet, bake for 8-11 minutes, until set. Do not overbake.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then enjoy with a glass of your favorite milk!
Notes
- Adapted from House of Nash Eats.
- To make these for other holidays, replace the Reese's Pieces with red/green, blue/white, pink/red chocolate candies to fit the season! They won't be as peanut buttery, but they'll still be delicious.
- Changes I made to Amy’s original recipe:
- Toll House Halloween Morsels no longer exist. I changed up the recipe to bring in more orange, mostly from the Reese’s Pieces, but also peanut butter chips.
- Amy suggests using Hershey’s Special Dark Cocoa Powder. I used Guittard’s Cocoa Rouge Powder for my version of her recipe because I couldn’t find it, and they’re equally dark. If you only have regular cocoa powder, though, that totally works, too!
- Amy suggests pressing the reserved chocolate and peanut butter chips into the tops of the cookies after baking them, though I had better luck placing them on the cookie dough before baking. (I have a bad habit of burning my fingers!)
