Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
1½ cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup peanut butter chips plus more for topping
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup mini Reese's

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until fluffy.
Beat eggs into butter mixture, on at a time.
Add vanilla and beat until combined.
In a second medium mixing bowl, add flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine.
Add flour mixture into butter mixture and stir until just combined.
Fold in chocolate, peanut butter, and Reese's chips.
Drop cookies by level tablespoons onto the prepared cookie sheets 2 to 3 inches apart.
Press additional peanut butter and chocolate chips into cookies before baking if desired.
Bake in a 350°F oven until edges are set, about 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are slightly browned. Middles will still look under-done. Allow to cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
