Reese’s Pieces Double Chocolate Chip Cookies are rich, soft, and chewy cookies packed with cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and colorful peanut butter candy pieces for a decadent chocolate-peanut butter treat.

Ingredients

2 cups butter, softened (salted preferred; 1 pound or 4 sticks)

4 cups sugar

4 large eggs

4 teaspoons vanilla extract

4 cups all-purpose flour

1 ½ cups cocoa powder

2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

3 cups Reese’s Pieces

3 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat convection oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whip together softened butter and sugar until creamy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry mixture to butter mixture, stirring until well combined.
  5. Fold in Reese’s Pieces and chocolate chips evenly.
  6. Using a ¾-inch cookie dough scoop or a scant tablespoon, drop dough 2 inches apart on prepared sheets.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes until cookies are soft and slightly puffed. Do not overbake. Cookies will flatten as they cool.
  8. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Add nuts like chopped peanuts or walnuts for extra crunch.

Use white or milk chocolate chips as an alternative.

Add mini peanut butter cups or swirl peanut butter into dough for more peanut flavor.

Add a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder for depth of flavor.

Substitute gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free version.

Chill dough before baking to prevent spreading.

Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days; freeze for longer storage.
