Soft peanut butter cookies stuffed with Reese’s Pieces! This is my all time favorite peanut butter cookie recipe because it’s so thick, chewy, and easy!
Y’all know my husband?
The man who eats all my food?
The one who hasn’t cooked anything other than french toast, bacon, and eggs in the past 10 years?
The one who thought whipped cream came from egg whites and not, you know, cream…that had been whipped?
The man who refuses to try anything that might have a hint of an onion in it, probably just on principle or to annoy me or because he’s just stubborn and not at all because he dislikes onions. I mean, he probably can’t even remember what onions taste like, it’s been so long since he’s eaten one.
Anyway. That man.
He knows his cookies. He is a true cookie connoisseur. Especially when it comes to homemade peanut butter cookies.
Sure, he is often unable to find the ranch dressing or jelly in our refrigerator (it’s in the same spot every time, you guys!), but he knows his way around the cookie jar.
These soft peanut butter cookies that are eyeballing you right now? He made a comment about them being amazing. The best. Perfect.
He used a lot of very nice adjectives, y’all. I think we can all take this to mean that these cookies are winners!
You’ve got to try this soft peanut butter cookie recipe, like immediately. I bet it moves to the top of your favorites list.
I’m a fan of super soft, not even slightly crunchy peanut butter cookies. These cookies? Fit the bill.
Super soft, super chewy. They’re fat and puffy. They’re easy. They’re amazing.
They’re also chock full of Reese’s Pieces and chocolate chips.

What can I use instead of peanut butter (I’m not fond of)? I will change
the peanut butter reeese to just reese semi-choc. I really like everything else in this recipeReply

@Sherry,
Hi Sherry!
I’m not sure what you’re fond of about this recipe, since it’s a peanut butter cookie with peanut butter candies? Maybe you’re looking for a chocolate chip cookie recipe?

Now would you look at that. I would’ve used all the positive adjectives I know even if I was in his position because the cookies are indeed very appetizing. I really liked the last image where it showed the filling. It made my mouth drool.
