Step-by-Step: How to Make White Chocolate Reese’s Pieces Peanut Butter Chip Cookies

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside while you prepare the cookie dough

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. This will help ensure even distribution in the cookie dough and prevent any lumps.

Step 3: Cream the Butter and Sugars

In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Using a stand or handheld mixer, beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, mixing just until combined. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes, then give it another quick mix

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, folding them in with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make your cookies tough

Step 5: Add the Mix-Ins

Gently fold in the white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and Reese’s Pieces, spreading them evenly throughout the dough

Step 6: Shape the Dough

Using about 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie, roll the dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie for spreading

Step 7: Bake

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 11 minutes or until the edges turn golden but the centers are still soft. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely

Serving Suggestions

These cookies are delicious on their own, but if you’re feeling extra decadent, try pairing them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or dunking them in a cold glass of milk. The creamy flavors of white chocolate and peanut butter truly shine when paired with a cozy hot beverage, like cocoa or coffee

Storage Tips

Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. To maintain their chewiness, consider placing a slice of bread in the container to help them retain moisture. You can also freeze the cookie dough balls for up to three months—just pop them on the baking sheet and bake as needed

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate chips?

Absolutely! Dark or milk chocolate chips would add a slightly different flavor and richness, making for a delicious variation on this recipe

Do I have to chill the dough?

For this recipe, chilling isn’t necessary, but if you prefer a thicker cookie, chilling the dough for 30 minutes will help reduce spreading

Can I make these cookies gluten-free?

Yes, just substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free baking blend to make them gluten-free. Double-check other ingredients to ensure they’re gluten-free as well
