This recipe comes from another cooking blog that I check out regularly, Real Mom Kitchen. I think this is the first of her recipes that I have tried and the cookies turned out great! I will definitely go back to find more things to cook. These cookies are rich and delicious!!!
3/4 butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup peanut butter
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
32 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups, chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together the baking soda, salt & flour; set aside. With an electric mixer, cream together the butter and two sugars. Add the eggs one at a time. Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop the dough onto a prepared cookie sheet and use your hand to slightly flatten each cookie. Cook for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and lightly press about 6 to 8 pieces of the chopped peanut butter cups onto each cookie. Return the cookies to the oven to bake for another 2 minutes. Cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. I like to use two cookie sheets so I can bake the next batch without waiting for the first to cool. Enjoy with a cold glass of milk!

That’s awesome! Thanks for much for featuring my recipe.
Love this recipe. I am baking today, so maybe I can squeeze these into the days routine. They sound so good. Hugs, Marty
This recipe is fantastic, I chose to use the Reese’s cups. They are fun to make with friends and are delicious! I suggest putting the bag of Reese’s in the fridge while making the dough so the wrapper is much easier to peel off and the peanut butter will no longer fall off! I highly reccomend that you try this recipe…I guarantee you’ll fall in love with it!
