• servings: 10 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 24 minutes

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened to room temperature)

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter

3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

3/4 cup peanut butter chips

1 teaspoon vegetable oil (or canola oil)

3/4 cup Reese's peanut butter cups (chopped)

Directions

Make the Cookies

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.

Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, or a hand mixer, cream butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 2-3 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and mix again until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Add the salt, baking soda, and flour and mix until combined.

Portion into 1/4 cup sized balls. Place 6 on baking sheet. Using the palm of your hand press down on each ball until it makes a thick disk, like a hockey puck.

Bake for 11-12 minutes. The cookies will appear crackly and the centers will look slightly underdone but will set as they cool.

Remove from oven and let cookies cool on pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

Prepare Toppings

Place the peanut butter chips and vegetable oil in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in 20 second increments until fully melted.

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the melted peanut butter chips over each cookie, spreading it around the top. Sprinkle some chopped Reeses peanut butter cups over top.

Serve at room temperature or warm.
