I couldn't believe my eyes when I found Reese's peanut butter chips in the grocery store the other day - so many of my favourite foods from home were not available in Australia when I first moved here 12 years ago, but times are changing. I recently saw Reese's peanut butter cups in Woolies, and now -- peanut butter chips! So of course I had to grab some and start scouring for ideas to use them for. These cookies were a simple yet delicious idea. Now to get my husband to eat them all so they don't sit around tempting me! :)

This recipe is from Hersheys.com and it was really quick and easy to throw together. It said they made 54, but I actually got 72 out of them. I suppose it just depends on how big you make them. They were great, he said they were delicious by themselves, and he also tried using them to make ice cream sandwiches by layering some vanilla ice cream between two cookies. Yum!

Ingredients
  2 cups all-purpose flour
  3/4 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa
  1 teaspoon baking soda / bicarb soda
  1/2 teaspoon salt
  1-1/4 cups (2-1/2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
  2 cups sugar
  2 eggs
  2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  1-2/3 cups (10-oz. pkg.) REESE'S Peanut Butter Chips

Directions
1. Heat oven to 350°F / 180°C. Stir together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; set aside.

2. Beat butter and sugar in large bowl with mixer until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Gradually add flour mixture, beating well. Stir in peanut butter chips. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet.

3. Bake 8 to 9 minutes. (Do not over bake; cookies will be soft. They will puff while baking and flatten while cooling.) Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Makes about 54 cookies.

PAN RECIPE: Spread batter in greased 15-1/2x10-1/2x1-inch jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350°F 20 minutes or until set. Cool completely in pan on wire rack; cut into bars. About 4 dozen bars.

ICE CREAM SANDWICHES: Prepare CHEWY CHOCOLATE COOKIES as directed; cool. Press small scoop of vanilla ice cream between flat sides of cookies. Wrap and freeze.

HIGH ALTITUDE DIRECTIONS:
-- Increase flour to 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons.
-- Decrease baking soda to 3/4 teaspoon.
-- Decrease sugar to 1-2/3 cups.
-- Add 2 teaspoons water with flour mixture.
-- Bake at 350°F, 7 to 8 minutes. Yield increases to about 6 dozen. Visit and Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Annas-Kitchen-1686376324950749/
