One of my all-time favorite things is Peanut Butter. I will eat peanut butter in any form, cookies, pies, fudge, on just about anything, or straight up on a spoon. So why not combine Reese’s with Peanut Butter Cookies?

I remember when I was younger, I would come home from school and always have a spoonful of peanut butter. I don’t have it every day now but sometimes come pretty darn close to it. One of my boys comes just about as close to me for his love of peanut butter. I do try to make some form of peanut butter dessert to satisfy my sweet tooth and his.

I love to bake and I usually try to find recipes that my boys will enjoy, that way they end up eating most of it and not Mr. DD. and me. I have to admit that when I make any type of peanut butter dessert, it is for me and not the boys. They understand that their mama is a peanut butter fanatic.

Reese's Loaded Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

This recipe was a little crumbly for me. I like a soft gooey cookie. This is the great debate in my house; soft and chewy or firm. There are a few of us that like our cookies very soft and chewy and others who like them firm for dunking. Which do you prefer?
