    freshly baked pb reese's cookies on a white plate

    These PB Reese’s Cookies are soft, gooey, and rich in chocolate and peanut butter flavor in every bite! You will love the combination of flavors plus the sumptuous texture that the M & M’s and peanut butter cups have. Make these at home by using this easy and quick cookie recipe!

    I am actually a big fan of peanut butter, especially peanut butter M&M’s! In addition, my favorite thing about this recipe was, I added all the wet ingredients into the bowl and creamed it all at one time!  I’m all about quick and easy recipes, so this would be the recipe if you are looking to make and bake under 20 minutes!

    Tips on How to Make PB Reese’s Cookies:

    • Before mixing the dry ingredients like all-purpose flour, baking soda, and brown sugar, sift them individually. This easy but very important step would make your cookies nice and evenly textured. It wouldn’t be fun biting into a lump of flour in between 🙂
    • Make sure to not put the raw cookie dough balls too near each other. By spacing them out properly, it will prevent the cookies from sticking together after baking.

    How to Make PB Reese’s Cookies:

    These are the ingredients that you will need:

    • butter softened
    • white sugar
    • brown sugar
    • large egg
    • vanilla extract
    • creamy peanut butter
    • all-purpose flour
    • baking soda
    • baking powder
    • salt
    • peanut butter M&M’s
    • chopped Reese’s cups

    Preheat oven 350 degrees F grease cookie sheet, use parchment paper or a baking mat.

    In a large bowl, add butter, white and brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, peanut butter and cream with a beater:

    In a medium-sized bowl, add all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and mix with a whisk:

    Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until combined:

    Flatten each cookie using something that has a flat surface. I used my handy-dandy mason jar to do this 🙂 Place in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown:

        Hi there,
        It depends. With the cookie scooper, it made 18-20 cookies. If you make smaller cookies, probably 38-40

      Can you leave out the peanut butter? Or will that mess up the recipe?

        Hi Amal, I have not tried it without the peanut butter, however you can replace it with your favorite spread. 🙂 Or use my chocolate chip cookie recipe & replace the chocolate chips with M&M’s and Reese’s. 🙂 I hope this helps. 🙂
