For #Choctoberfest 2019, I’ve decided to share the flavor combo that beats ALL flavor combos with the absolute BEST peanut butter and chocolate cookies.

Reese’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies are a chocolate twist on my Loaded Peanut Butter Cookies. They are soft and chewy chocolate peanut butter cookies packed with Reese’s Pieces, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups regulars and miniatures, and mini chocolate chips, which is totally making my mouth water just telling you about and thinking about. 🤤

I love Reese's everything! 😍

As if the peanut butter and chocolate of Reese's candy isn't enough (it isn't), and the 1 and ¼ cups creamy peanut butter in the cookie isn't enough (it isn't), these delicious morsels also have ⅓ cup of cocoa powder AND a ½ cup of mini chocolate chips, which makes them an even more drool-worthy, and the ultimate indulgence!

I could spend all day telling you how FABULOUS these heavenly cookies taste and how my taste-testers LOVED them and wanted more, but let's change gears and talk about the making of these bad boys instead.

These cookies require a little prep, nothing crazy, but all those Reese's aren't going to chop themselves. Thankfully, they aren't difficult though, the most difficult aspect of making these cookies is getting the peanut butter out of the measuring cup, so not too bad. 😉  Plus, as a lovely bonus, they do not require refrigerating the dough, so you get to eat them faster.

These are all excellent selling points in my book because I am not a fan of waiting, refrigerating the dough, or sifting flour, which you also do not have to do with this recipe. I am also a HUGE fan of getting to eat these cookies as fast as humanly possible. They are THAT good!!

Reese’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies are the perfect marriage of peanut butter and chocolate; a drool-worthy indulgence you’re going to want to make and shovel into your face!! 😝🍫🥜

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 2 and ¼ cups all-purpose flour
• ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 and ¼ cups creamy peanut butter
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 30 Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Miniatures, chopped
• 8 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (Regular Size), chopped
• ½ cup Reese's Pieces
• ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
• In a medium-size bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
• In a large bowl using an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugars on medium speed; until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract, peanut butter, and eggs; mix until combined.
• Slowly add flour mixture to wet ingredients; mix just until combined. Add in chopped Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Miniatures, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (Regulars), Reese's Pieces, and mini chocolate chips; mix until combined.
• Scoop dough into 2 teaspoon balls, or use a #40 disher to scoop balls of dough. Place dough on an ungreased baking sheet or silicone mat/parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Slightly flatten dough balls with the bottom of a cup and add a few Reese's Pieces on top.
• Bake 12-14 minutes or until barely golden brown around the edges. Do not overbake. The tops will not brown. Cookies may appear to be soft and undone, but they will set as they cool.
• Cool cookies on baking sheet for 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Eat & Enjoy!
