Equipment

  • Electric mixer
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mats
  • Baking sheets
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cooling rack

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter
  • 8-10 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped into small pieces
  • 8-10 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped for garnish
  • optional Additional mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Beat softened cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and peanut butter until blended. Fold in chopped mini Reese's cups and set aside.
  • In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. Cream butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract, mix until combined. Slowly incorporate dry ingredients until dough forms; fold in mini chocolate chips if desired.
  • Scoop a tablespoon of dough, flatten it, place a spoonful of cheesecake filling in the center, wrap the dough around the filling, and seal the edges completely. Roll into a ball and place on parchment-lined baking sheets with space between cookies.
  • Bake at 350°F for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Garnish with chopped Reese's cups and mini chocolate chips. Serve with milk or coffee.

Notes

Use room-temperature ingredients for smoother mixing. If dough is sticky, chill it for 15 minutes to make handling easier. Feel free to experiment with different candies, like Snickers or Rolos, for fun variations. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat frozen cookies, let them thaw at room temperature for 15-20 minutes or microwave for 10-15 seconds. Enjoy these delightful treats with a glass of cold milk or a warm cup of coffee!
