Lots of evenings my husband snacks on the Reese's Peanut Butter and Milk Chocolate Baking Morsels. So last night at supper, he casually mentioned that wouldn't some cookies with those in them be good? Of course! (I've made them before, he just didn't remember...) There is a recipe on the package, but I thought that adding the morsels to a peanut butter cookie would be even better. This is what I came up with:
Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Peanut Butter Cookies
1/4 c softened butter
1/4 c shortening
1/2 c peanut butter (I really prefer to use Jif)
1 scant cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 pkg Reese's PB cup baking chips
Preheat oven to 350 F. Cream the butter, shortening and peanut butter until smooth. Add in sugar and beat until fluffy. Add in vanilla and egg. Mix well. Add salt, baking powder and flour mixing until well combined. Add in the Reese's and mix by hand. (Mixing with the mixer breaks up the pieces. Of course, if you would like your pieces broken up, that could be really good, too, then by all means - mix with the mixer!) Roll into 1" balls (I use the Pampered Chef medium scoop) and place on your baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until just golden brown on top. Let rest for 2 minutes on sheet before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
I can't give my own review...trying to lose that baby weight!...but Cyle said they were delicious.
