Peanut Butter Reese's Pieces Cookies

Sailor's Wife's Note:

The original recipe was Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies from Southern Living. I simply replaced the semisweet chocolate morsels in the original recipe with Reese's Pieces. My husband loves peanut butter and this is his favorite treat.

This recipe is Delicious!
My only problem is the same as another reviewers. I had to flatten mine too they did not bake well in drop cookie form.
Soooo good though!

These were great! Easy to make and tastey! We made the recipe both ways (1/2 of the batter we added Reese's Pieces and the other half we added 1/2 cup of mini morsels). They were both good but we preferred the ones with the Reese's. I used my cookie scoop and I found you had to 'smush' them down as they didn't spread while baking. Thanks!
