Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Meltaways
Oh my goodness. I hit a Grand Slam with this fantastic recipe! Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Meltaways are melt-in-your-mouth cookies made with chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. They are glorious! If you need a chocolate or peanut butter fix, these cookies are the ones to do it. 🙂

We were asked to bake up some Christmas Cookies back in early December so our community could share goodies with the infirm and shut-ins living here. There are over 3,000 homes and the group putting this together wanted to fill up about 100 bags. We were happy to oblige and threw together some Coconut Chocolate Chip Meltaways and these Reese’s Cup Meltaways as well. They were glad to get the cookies and we enjoyed being of service to our community.
While this cookie recipe uses a lot of ingredients, it’s really not very difficult to make. This is one of my favorite “melt-in-your-mouth” cookie recipes and the recipe turns out spectacular every time. No matter what I combine it with, the cookies are just plain scrumptious in my opinion.
I’ve tried it with Creme de Menthe candies, Butterfingers, Chocolate Chips, Peppermint Chips, Heath English Toffee Bits, Candied Cherries, Oreo Cookies, Crystalized Ginger, Sea Salt Caramels, Tropical Pineapple, Coconut and Coconut Chocolate Chip. Each batch turned out wonderfully. I usually roll the cookies in granulated sugar before baking. That makes them extra delicious.
If you want to wow your family and friends, make up a batch of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Meltaways the first chance you get. Everyone will swoon over them, and you will go home with an empty plate!
