Chocolate and peanut butter cookies

Chocolate and peanut butter cookies mix two delicious flavours together. The iconic peanut butter flavour works so well with cookies.

 I was luck to be given a huge bag of Reese’s Pieces and knew they would have to go into cookies. These cookies I could easily eat without baking them in anything but I thought cookies would be a lovely thing to make and share with my friends. I decided to add peanut butter to the mix as well as having the pieces in them. This was a very good decision.  These were happily devoured very quickly.

  • 300 g light brown soft sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 350 g plain flour / all purpose flour
  • 50 cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon bicarb of soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch salt
  • 200 g Reese's Pieces (set 50g aside to decorate the dough before it goes in the oven)

  • Preheat the oven to 170 degrees / 160 fan /Gas mark 3 and line 3 baking sheets with greaseproof baking parchment.
  • Cream together the butter, peanut butter and sugar.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix in.
  • Sieve in the flour, baking powder, cocoa, bicarb and a pinch of salt.
  • Stir in in the flour until you get a thick mix. If is it too dry add a little splash of milk.
  • Add 150g of the Reese's Pieces and mix in until evenly distributed.
  • Take heaped tablespoons of the mix and pop them on the lined baking trays. Make sure they aren't too close together as they will spread.

  • Bake for 10 minutes.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for a few seconds and enjoy. They taste lovely warm with a cup of tea.
