Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies
This Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies are inspired by a Halloween memory I had growing up.
Did anyone else’s Dad have to “inspect” your candy after trick-or-treating (or trick-or-beer as it was known in the good ole Parkwood days)? Did the “inspection” then require an “inspection fee”? My Dad’s “inspection fee” always came in the form of Reese’s which in my opinion was a coveted trick-or-treating treasure.
I developed this recipe from that childhood memory!
These Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies have DOUBLE the Reese’s goodness with both mini Reese’s and Reese’s Pieces. They also have TRIPLE the peanut butter from both candies plus the peanut butter in the dough.
Peanut butter and chocolate lovers rejoice!
