Reese's Peanut Butter Chip Chocolate Cookies

Teresa Ambra
Reese's Peanut Butter Chip Chocolate Cookies are the ultimate in chocolate cookies. These lovely cookies are filled with peanut butter chips making for one spectacular cookie. The combination of chocolate and peanut butter will have you craving more and more of these tasty jewels. This is a great dessert to serve for any occasion, including birthdays, holidays, tailgating parties or other family events. I usually serve them in our yearly Christmas Cookie baskets.
