Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups Reese's Pieces candies
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can lead to tough cookies.
Using a spatula, gently fold in the Reese's Pieces candies and chocolate chunks, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
