The BEST Chocolate Cookies with Reese's Peanut Butter Chips
These chocolate cookies with Reese's peanut butter chips produce SUPER chewy cookies with delicious chocolate + peanut butter flavor!
Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 c brown sugar
- ⅔ c granulated white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 ½ c all-purpose flour
- ½ c unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa ((I use Hershey’s Special Dark - see notes))
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 c semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 c Reese's peanut butter chips
Directions
- 1
Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment (or a hand-held electric mixer), cream together the butters & the sugar on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
- 2
Scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula & then add in eggs & vanilla. Mix just until blended (10-15 seconds) on medium speed.
- 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
- 4
With the mixer on low, gradually add in dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips & peanut butter chips.
- 5
Cover mixing bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. (You can chill longer - even overnight - if that's more convenient.)
- 6
Remove dough from fridge, preheat oven to 375, and roll out dough to form 24 cookies - 12 on each baking pan. (If you aren't using USA Pans as your cookie sheets, you may want to consider laying down parchment paper to prevent cookies from sticking.)

Optional: add in a few more Reese's peanut butter chips and chocolate chips to the tops of the cookie dough balls for an extra pop of flavor and a melty bite. :)

Bake one pan at a time for 9 minutes at 375 & remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pans for about 10-15 minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack and allow them to completely cool before transferring them to an airtight container.
