Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (cold, cut into cubes)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 3 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cup peanut butter cups (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and sugar for 4 minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl.
- Add in eggs and vanilla and mix for 1 minute longer.
- Fold in flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Add chocolate chips and a heaping 1 cup of peanut butter cups, reserving about 1/3 cup for the top of the cookies.
- Roll into 4 to 6-ounce balls. If making 4-ounce balls, you should end up with about 12-13 cookies or if you roll into 6-ounce balls, you should end up with 8-9 cookies.
- Place on a parchment paper lined, light-colored baking sheet. If you are NOT using light colored baking sheets, reduce the oven temperature to 390 degrees to ensure the bottom of the cookies don't become too brown. Bake for 9-12 minutes. Do not overbake as these cookies are supposed to be slightly soft in the center. As soon as you remove the baking sheet from the oven, carefully place the extra peanut butter cups on top of the cookies. Allow to set up for 10 minutes.
Notes
- These Reese's peanut butter cup cookies can be stored in an airtight container for several days.
- These cookies can be frozen in a freezer-safe gallon-sized bag for up to two months.
- For gourmet bakery looking cookies:
- To make bakery-style cookies look more gourmet, I suggest adding extra chocolate chips and peanut butter cups as soon as you pull the cookies from the oven. This allows them to slightly melt because. of the warm cookies and to highlight the ingredients inside the cookies.
