12 Days of Holiday Treats Day 1: Ultimate Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies

On the first day of holiday treats my true love made for me, Ultimate Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies


I found this recipe on Sally's Baking Addiction. I've made these cookies twice now, once as a cookie cake for work and then again as regular cookies here. These cookies are delicious and pretty easy to make. Use my link above to find the exact recipe, but see my steps below. 


Like most recipes you will mix your dry ingredients together in a bowl


Whip your butter a bit to get things started


Add your sugars and peanut butter


Then egg


Then incorporate your dry ingredients


And finally mix in the most important part, the chunks of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups


The dough will need to chill before baking, so pop it in a container or cover your mixing bowl and through that delicious dough in the fridge.


Bake these little beauties


Drizzle melty peanut butter on top, I melted mine and then scooped it into a baggie to use as a piping bag


Try to let the peanut butter set or just dig in. I won't judge.


These peanut butter chocolate cookies are probably a new favorite for me. When I made the cookie cake, I used this recipe and baked the dough in a spring form pan for about 25 minutes.
