Equipment

  • 3 Large cookie sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • 1 Large mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • 1-½ tablespoon cookie scoop

Ingredients 

  • 1 box 13.25-ounce chocolate fudge cake mix
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup 196 grams Reese’s Pieces plus some extra for on top of the cookies
  • ½ cup 158 grams peanut butter chips plus some extra for on top of the cookies plus some extra for on top of the cookies

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F, and line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Combine the cake mix, butter, and eggs in a large bowl, and mix with an electric mixer until a thick, uniform dough forms. Fold in the Reese's Pieces and peanut butter chips.
  • Using a 1½ tablespoon cookie scoop, drop level scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies 2 inches apart. Press a few extra Reese's Pieces and peanut butter chips onto the top of each dough ball.
  • Bake one sheet at a time for 14 minutes, or until the edges are set. Remove from the oven, and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough to bake the second and third batches.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

  • Using a cookie scoop of a different size may give you a different amount of cookies.
  • If the kitchen is too warm, place the cookie dough in the fridge between batches to prevent it from getting too soft.
