Reeses Peanut Butter Egg Cookies
Today i saw these lil cookies on one of the many food blogs I stock (thanks picky-palate). I just new I had to make them. Of course I thought of my sis who LOVES these lil eggs, if she was closer I'd bring her some (to bad.)
They are delicious and should come with a warning that goes something like this:
WARNING: IF YOU ENJOY REESES EGGS OR PB AND CHOCOLATE OR COOKIES THEN BAKE AT YOUR OWN RISK, WE HERE AT KCL TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR WEIGHT GAIN OR WORSE OBSESSION (and be prepared to bring at least one plate to a friend, you hips will thank you!)
Ingredients
2 sticks softened butter
1 Cup packed brown sugar
1 Cup granulated sugar
3 Tablespoons corn syrup
2 large eggs plus 1 egg white
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3 1/2 Cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 Cups chopped (think chunky, next time i'll chop mine into bigger chuncks) Reeses Peanut Butter Eggs, 14 total eggs (find them in the Easter Candy Section, quick!)
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a stand or electric mixer beat the butter, sugars and corn syrup until well combined, light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
2. In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly add to wet ingredients. By hand mix in chopped Reeses Peanut Butter Eggs. Mix only until just combined. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop dough onto a silpat or parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes until just turning golden around edges. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. I do this with all my cookies and it leaves them soft and squishy in the middle, just underbake a lil. Serve with milk!
Makes 4 dozen
Enjoy KCL

I swear you are turning into me or something. Since when do you love peanut butter and chocolate? I thought you were a straight up chocolate girl... If I buy those eggs, they will never make it into cookies. They are just too good! And I love that there is more peanut butter to chocolate. The ratio is perfect. Better than the original Reeses.
I still am a straight up CHOCOLATE girl, but ever since I've been on a diet I seriously crave PB! All the time, it's so bad I can't even make my kids pb&j's. And now I have a killed Thai PB pasta, and Thai chicken pizza (both involve pb) Ya the eggs are deadly in the pantry!
