Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 sticks (8 ounces / 226 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
Sugar and Sweeteners:
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Add-ins and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
- 1/2 cup Reeses Pieces (mini or full-sized)
Instructions
- Warm the oven to a toasty 375°F and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper for optimal cookie performance.
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium mixing vessel, creating a dry ingredient foundation.
- In a spacious mixing bowl, whip butter and sugars together until they transform into a light, airy mixture. Introduce vanilla and eggs, blending carefully. Allow the mixture a brief 5-minute rest to enhance flavor development, then gently remix.
- Delicately incorporate the dry ingredient mixture into the butter blend, folding with a gentle touch to maintain a tender cookie texture.
- Gently fold white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and colorful Reese’s Pieces throughout the dough, ensuring even distribution of delightful morsels.
- Form dough into generous spheres, approximately 3 tablespoons each, positioning them strategically on prepared baking sheets with adequate spacing.
- Slide cookies into the preheated oven, baking for 11 minutes until edges turn a golden brown while centers remain delightfully soft.
- Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, enabling them to stabilize, then transfer to a wire rack for complete cooling. Savor the delectable result of your baking adventure.
Notes
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to prevent excessive spreading and create thicker, chewier cookies.
- Use room temperature butter and eggs for better incorporation and smoother cookie texture.
- For gluten-free option, swap all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend to maintain the same soft consistency.
- If you prefer less sweetness, reduce granulated sugar by 2 tablespoons and use dark brown sugar for deeper caramel notes.
