I am a sucker for Reese’s peanut butter. Sucker. I love it so much in anything. When I found these Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies I know I just had to make them. Immediately. Well, I didn’t run out and buy the Reese’s but I sure wanted to. They turned out just as yummy delicious as I hoped they would be.

Recipe Notes
[My 2 Cents]
This note was on the website and I concur: cookies are best if warm and still great the next day. No later than the day after baking (they turn into little peanut butter rocks).
