Step-by-Step Instructions

4. Mix the Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

6. Add All the Reese’s Goodies

7. Portion and Bake
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers remain soft.
8. Cool and Enjoy
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. 🌬️
Tips for the Best Triple Reese’s Peanut Butter Cookies
- Soft Butter: Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature for the best texture.
- Don’t Overmix: Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Stir until just combined to keep them soft and chewy.
- Cool Completely: Let them cool fully for a chewy, set texture. Although, a warm cookie fresh from the oven is hard to resist!
Storage Tips
- At Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- In the Freezer: These cookies freeze well! Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. They’ll keep for up to 3 months.
