Description

Reeseโ€™s Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites combine the soft, chewy texture of chocolate chip cookie dough with the rich, creamy flavor of Reeseโ€™s Peanut Butter Cups in a bite-sized treat. These delectable bites are perfect for parties, quick desserts, or anytime youโ€™re craving something sweet and indulgent. With only a few ingredients, they come together effortlessly in just under 20 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
  • 12 refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough balls (about 1โ€“2 tablespoons of dough each)
  • Peanut Butter Cups
  • 12 bite-sized Reeseโ€™s Peanut Butter Cups

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mini Muffin Pan
    Grease a mini muffin pan thoroughly to prevent the cookie bites from sticking. Use butter or non-stick spray for better results.
  2. Add the Cookie Dough
    Place a spoonful (about one refrigerated dough ball) of chocolate chip cookie dough into each cavity of the mini muffin pan. Make sure the dough is evenly distributed.
  3. Bake the Cookies
    Preheat your oven according to the instructions provided on the chocolate chip cookie dough package. Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges.
  4. Add the Reeseโ€™s Peanut Butter Cups
    As soon as you remove the mini muffin pan from the oven, carefully press one Reeseโ€™s Peanut Butter Cup into the center of each cookie. This step is best done while the cookies are still warm to ensure the candy adheres well.
  5. Cool and Serve
    Allow the cookie bites to cool in the mini muffin pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. If youโ€™re impatient like many dessert fans, enjoy them warm with gooey chocolate and peanut butter goodness!

Notes

  • Use room-temperature dough for easier scooping into the mini muffin pan.
  • If the Reeseโ€™s Peanut Butter Cups are melting too quickly, chill them in the freezer a few minutes before use.
  • These bites pair beautifully with a glass of cold milk or a cup of coffee.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
