Chocolate Reese's Chunk Cookies


I made you COOOOOOOOKIES! 
OOOH you're being spoiled this week, yes you are! 
Two posts in a row? Craziness I tell yas.  

These cookies. are. amazing. And the cookie dough? 
My gracious, my mouth is watering right now THINKING about it. 
It's some dangerous stuff, for reals. 
I could package it up and send it to the president and be a millionaire. 

Just saying. 

I found myself going back to the bowl for some more. 
And then again. And then again. And then again. 
I need to work on my self control… 

We're ALLLLLLL addicted to cookie dough though. 
Right? GOOOOD let's be friends! 
Friends who eat bowls and BOWLS of cookie dough. 
Without even getting salmonella. 
Only in heaven people, only in heaven. 
                                                                  

So let's talk about the actual COOKIES- the finished product, if you will. 
They're dense. and cakey. and fudgey. and gooey. 
With chunks of Reese's and some added crunch from the peanuts in each 
sweet chunky, amazing bite. 

Sorry for the weird amount of adjectives. 




Chocolate Reese's Chunk Cookies

1 c. butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 c. sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
2 c. flour
1/2 c. cocoa
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
8 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped into chunks
1/2 c. peanuts

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugar. egg and vanilla. Add in the flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa. Stir until smooth. Mix in the chopped Reese's and peanuts. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour- the longer the better. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease or line a cookie sheet. Roll the cookie dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
