Triple Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies
Deliciously rich and easy one-bowl cookies loaded with peanut butter, two types of sugar, and chocolate chips or Reese’s Pieces for the ultimate treat.
Ingredients
Cookie Base
- 1 cup peanut butter Use creamy peanut butter for best results.
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar Light or dark brown sugar works.
- 1 large egg Large eggs are preferred.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Mix-ins
- 1 cup chocolate chips or Reese’s Pieces Choose based on your texture preference.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, baking soda, and salt until the dough is smooth and thick.
- Fold in the chocolate chips or Reese’s Pieces until evenly distributed.
- Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
- Press each mound slightly with a fork to create a classic crosshatch pattern.
Baking
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers look set but slightly soft.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
For melty chocolate pockets, serve warm; for chewier cookies, allow to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
