Ingredients

  • 2 sticks unsalted butter, cold and cut into chunks (228 grams)
  • ½ cup light brown sugar (100 grams)
  • 1 cup sugar (200 grams)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten in a separate bowl (100 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 280 grams all-purpose flour 2 cups, unsifted
  • ½ cup Hershey’s Dark cocoa powder (40 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips
  • 1 cup Reese’s baking mix cups and pieces
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Put the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat with a paddle until it becomes creamy. Add the sugars and beat for about 4 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape sides of bowl.
  • With mixer on low speed, pour in the 100 grams of beaten eggs and the vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to the mixing bowl and stir on low until completely blended, then stir in the peanut butter chip mixture.
  • Scoop dough into 12 equal size mounds and place on a piece of plastic wrap. Cover and chill, cover with plastic wrap and chill for several hours (I recommend overnight) or until the dough is stiff.
  • Arrange oven rack so that it is in the top third of the oven.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • When ready to bake, arrange dough balls on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 375 F. for 16-18 minutes. Cookies should look slightly underdone. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

Note: For this recipe it is best to weigh the flour. 2 cups of flour can be anywhere from 250 to 280 grams. I used 280 grams total.
