Reese’s Pieces-peanut M&M chocolate cookies stuffed with Reese’s pb cups

Uncategorized Leave a comment

Well, sadly, on this football friday #20, I am not anxiously awaiting a Bills game this weekend. My guys are not playing. It is weird not to be getting excited for one of our games. Honestly, it It is a shock to my system how sudden the season can end this time of year.

Today’s treat is a chocolate cookie,with peanut butter chips, peanut m&ms and stuffed with a Reese’s peanut butter Christmas tree (I still have a lot left over from the holidays and they are good until August). Of course if peanut butter is not your bag, you can use chocolate chips, m&m’s and stuff them with oreos (or keep them plain).

A plain ore for Rob!

Remember to scoop your flour and cocoa from your container into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. I ran out of time to chill the individual cookie dough pieces, but I would next time in hopes of them spreading less. Also, preheat your oven before baking.

Melt your chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl in 45 second increments until you can stir smooth.

  • Ingredients list
  • 10 tbs butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 2/3 cups chocolate chips, melted
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup baking cocoa
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 bag peanut butter chips (10 oz)
  • 1 bag peanut butter m&ms (9 oz)

Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, cream butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Completely blend in melted chocolate. Fold in dry ingredients. Mix in chips and m&ms. Scoop out 1 1/3 tbs dough (I used a cookie scoop) and slightly flatten

Place a Reese’s tree on top

Top with another flattened 1 1/3 tbs dough

Seal edges

Stagger on prepared cookie sheet.

Bake 10 to 13 minutes, no longer. Cool completely. Store in covered container.

Thanks for stopping by today. Wishing you a day of love, joy and peace.

Chocolate stuffed cookies

Chocolate stuffed cookies

In an effort to use up our remaining Halloween candy (Rob bought 24 bags, but we only used 15), I opted for a stuffed cookie. These are chocolate and use melted chocolate chips in the batter. Half of these are stuffed with Reese’s peanut butter cups, the other half with oreos. We have a lot of oreos around too, plus not everyone loves peanut butter. So people can tell the difference, I placed 3 white chocolate chips on the top of the oreo stuffed cookies.

Remember to spoon your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount. I chilled these overnight to keep the dough from. Spreading too much. Preheat yourboven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes before baking so your oven cycles to the right temp. Don’t bake these longer than 10 to 12 minutes because the bottoms will burn. These will firm up after you take them out of the oven.

  • Ingredients list
  • 10 tbs butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 2/3 cups dark chocolate chips, melted
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup baking cocoa
  • 2 tsp baking powder

Directions – cream butter, brown sugar and sugar. Blend in melted chocolate. Stir in eggs and vanilla. Fold in dry ingredients. Scoop out 2 to 3 tbs of dough and evenly divide in half. Slightly flatten each half.

On one half, place a peanut butter cup or oreo

Top with remaining flattened half of cookie dough

Seal edges to completley cover oreo or peanut butter cup

Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes before baking. On a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or nonstick baking liners, stagger cookies.

Bake 10 to 12 minutes (no longer or else the bottoms could burn)

Cool completely and store in covered container.
