Ingredients You Need

Reese’s Chocolate Fudge Cookies Recipe

• unsalted butter, room temperature
• brown sugar
• granulated sugar
• egg
• vanilla extract
• all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour measured correctly
• unsweetened cocoa powder, measured correctly and clump free, sift if needed
• baking powder
• salt
• white chocolate chips or peanut butter chips or chocolate chips

How to Make Reese’s Chocolate Fudge Cookies

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Line a baking sheet or two with parchment paper.
3. Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, cream butter until light and creamy for 2 minutes.
4. Add in sugar and brown sugar and continuing creaming for 1-2 more minutes.
5. Add in egg, mixing until fully incorporated into batter.
6. Add in vanilla extract and mix.
7. Sift or whisk together the dry ingredients of flour, baking powder and cocoa powder in a separate bowl and add into the mixture, and beat together just until a chocolate dough forms.
8. Then fold in the Reese’s Pieces and white chocolate chips.
9. Using a medium cookie scoop, (1 & ½ tablespoons), scoop cookie dough onto baking sheet and press some Reese’s Pieces on top, but don’t add more white chocolate chips until they are done baking. This helps the white chocolate chips not to brown on top.
10. Leave room for the cookies to spread very slightly.
11. Bake for approximately 8-10 minutes on cookie sheet. Gooier for 8 minutes.
12. Cookies should be starting to firm up but still soft in the middle. Remove from the oven and press a few white chocolate chips if desired.
13. Let cookies set on cookie tray for a couple of minutes before removing them to cool completely on a wire rack. So good with a glass of milk!
14. Allow to cool completely prior to storing in an airtight container.
