monster peanut butter cookies

the goods:

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 and 1/4 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup sugar

2/3 cup packed brown sugar

2 eggs, room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup peanut butter chips

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 bag Reese's pieces

In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Add eggs one a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and beat to combine. Slowly ad dry ingredients and beat just until combined. Stir in oats, peanut butter chips, and chocolate chips. Refrigerate dough for 15 minutes, meanwhile preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Pour Reese's pieces onto a plate or into a wide bowl. Using a large cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons) drop cookie dough into the bowl of Reese's pieces. Gently use your hand to press the dough down into the candies and flatten the dough into a disc, then transfer to the cookie sheet. Bake, six at a time, for 12-13 minutes or until the edges are just beginning to darken. Allow to cool on cookie sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
