So, last weekend while My Oldest was playing with his friend from down the street, I decided to poke around the pantry to see what I had in there. I found a bag of Reese's peanut butter chips. I remembered my neighbor telling me that he would love a cookie that tastes like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. So, I went searching for a chocolate cookie recipe that used the PB chips.
I found one, and since I knew I'd need the oven sooner rather than later for the pizzas we were making for lunch I decided to bake the dough into a bar cookie instead of drop cookies. These bar cookies were spread in a jelly-roll pan rather than the usual 9x13 pan which means a thinner cookie which means a shorter baking time!
These cookie bars were so gooey and chocolatey when they came right out of the oven! They were a huge hit with the kids and the neighbors... I hear that they made it into the lunchboxes for dessert on Monday! I should tell you that they are best eaten by the 2nd or 3rd day since they start to dry out a bit after that - even with keeping them in a sealed container (or perhaps someone has been sneaking a few and not closing the container.... hmmmmm... I think I can figure out the culprit with a bit of interrogation!).
You can find the recipe HERE. Go ahead, indulge your peanut butter and chocolate craving... I dare you!

Mmm, they look so fudgy, it's no wonder they were a hit!
Resese is one of my fav American candies... I love when they come out with the easter version.. the eggs?
The fact that you made it into a Brownie bar....all the more delish.
