inside? That’s right. These are no ordinary chocolate chip cookies…beneath their plain-jane exteriors lies a mini Reese’s peanut butter cup heart!

Reese’s Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

Makes about 4 dozen cookies

Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe from AllRecipes.com

Ingredients:

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons hot water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 bag (I believe 12 oz? Should be 40 count) miniature Reese’s PB cups

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease baking sheet and unwrap PB cups.
2. Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Dissolve baking soda in hot water. Add to batter along with salt. Stir in flour, chocolate chips.
3. Wrap each PB cup with cookie dough, and place 2” apart on a greased cookie sheet.
4. Bake for about 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or cookies are lightly browned.
5. Repeat until all dough is used (about 4 batches).

Notes:

• Recipe is top-rated from AllRecipes.com. A very simple, easy-to-make, and delicious cookie. Bakes up evenly and fuss-free; a pretty cookie, bakery quality.
• Truly surprise center—after baking, couldn’t tell those with Reese’s inside apart from those without!
• Heavenly warm and soft. They do crisp up after cooling, but underbaking (10 min as original recipe stated, instead of 15) can fix that.
• Can you really go wrong? And so easy too.
