These Reese's Stuffed Cookies start with a classic chocolate chip cookie, then we stuff in a Reese's peanut butter cup to add a warm peanut butter bomb in the center of each cookie!

Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 ½ cups brown sugar lightly packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ cups butter- melted
  • 2 eggs + 3 egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 cup regular chocolate chips
  • 12 Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

Instructions

Instructions:

  • Place your Reese’s in the freezer before you start to prepare the dough.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer equipped with a paddle attachment, cream both sugars and the melted butter for about 1 minute.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until well combined.
  • With the mixer on low speed, slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix until there are no dry spots remaining.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips last.
  • Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes until it is easy to handle.
  • Once the dough is chilled, preheat your oven to 425 degrees/F and prepare 2 cookie sheets by spraying generously with non-stick spray.
  • Remove the Reese’s cups from the package and set aside.
  • Take one ball of dough (I use a 3 oz. cookie scoop) and gently press one peanut butter cup in the center of the dough.
  • Take another scoop of cookie dough, and form around the other side of the peanut butter cup.
  • Gently roll the dough in your hand, trying to remember which way the peanut butter cup is facing, place the dough ball on a cookie sheet with the bottom of the peanut butter cup facing down.
  • Continue with all the peanut butter cups.
  • Refrigerate the rolled cookie dough balls for 15 minutes.
  • Bake for 14-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and place the cookie sheet on a wire rack and allow the cookies to cool completely.
  • Serve immediately or place in an air tight container at room temperature for up to three days.
