Soft Baked Reese’s Pieces Chocolate Chips Cookies
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup unsalted butter melted
- ¾ cup brown sugar loosely packed
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
- ½ cup Reese’s Pieces
Instructions
- In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until no lumps are left.
- Whisk in the egg, then the egg yolk.
- Whisk in the vanilla.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix (I like to use a spatula to help scrape down the sides as I go). The dough will be very soft and buttery.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and Reese’s Pieces until they’re evenly distributed.
- Cover the dough and chill for at least 2 hours. I did mine overnight.
- After chilling, set the dough out to soften to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325 degrees and line your baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper.
- Roll the dough into balls, approximately 3 Tablespoons each. (I used my cookie scoop to help me)
- [Make the dough balls taller rather than wider to end up with thick cookies]
- They’re large so you should have 8 per tray instead of the of the usual 12.
- Press a couple more Reese’s Pieces into the the top of the dough balls, if you want. They’ll come out prettier that way.
- Bake for 11-12 minutes. They’ll look underdone but that’s ok because you’re going to leave them on the baking sheet for another 10 minutes to cool and they’re continue baking.
- After 10 minutes, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
