Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • pastry cutter
  • silicone baking mat

Ingredients

  • 16 oz package ready-to-bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough we used Pillsbury
  • 8 Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups original size

Instructions

PREP OVEN AND BAKING SHEET:

  • Move the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set it aside.

MAKE COOKIES:

  • There should be 24 individual cookie dough balls in the package. Cut 8 of the dough balls in half, add a half of a dough ball to all of the remaining full dough balls, and roll the dough into even bigger balls.
  • Use your fingers to flatten one of the balls of dough gently.
  • Place a Reese’s cup top-down on the cookie dough.
  • Flatten another ball of dough and place it on the top of the Reese’s and then pinch the seams together to seal.
  • Place the cookies on the parchment-lined baking sheet at least 4 to 5 inches apart, making sure that the Reese’s inside is top-down.

BAKE:

  • Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until the edges are golden brown. The tops might still look a little underdone, but they will finish cooking and solidify as they cool.

COOL AND SERVE:

  • Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes and then move to a wire rack to cool completely for 45 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • The Reese’s should go top-down so that as the dough bakes, there’s no risk of the edges of the peanut butter cup poking through.
  • You could also use peanut butter cookie dough with this recipe.
  • These make huge jumbo cookies.
