Reese's Pieces Cookies
Description
This cookie recipe begins by creaming together peanut butter, softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. An egg, milk, and vanilla extract are added to this mixture for moisture and flavor. Dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, and salt—are whisked separately and then incorporated into the wet mixture to form cookie dough.
Semi-sweet chocolate chips and most of the Reese's Pieces candies are folded into the dough before portioning. Additional Reese's Pieces are added on top of each dough ball for visual appeal and extra candy texture. Baking at 350°F for 8-9 minutes yields cookies that are set but remain tender, with a mix of peanut butter richness, chocolate, and sweet candy crunch.
The blend of peanut butter and chocolate chips paired with Reese's Pieces candies sets these cookies apart by adding candy bursts throughout and on top, making for a flavorful, textured treat.
