Description

Delicious cookies made with chocolate cake mix and Reeses pieces.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Eggs (Large)
  • 1/3 cup Oil
  • 1 box Chocolate cake mix (15 oz. box)
  • 1/4 tsp Baking powder
  • 3/4 cup Reeses pieces (Can also use combination of half Reeses pieces and half mini Reeses peanut butter cups)
  • 2 cups Buttercream icing
  • 1 cup Mini Reeses peanut butter cups (Cut in half)
  • 1/2 cup Reeses pieces

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, add eggs, oil and mix until smooth.
  2. Add chocolate cake mix, baking powder and mix until combined.
  3. Stir in Reeses pieces until evenly distributed.
  4. Cover bowl and chill cookie dough in the fridge for 20 minutes to make it easier to handle.
  5. Scoop out small portions of the dough and make little balls.
  6. Place them on a cookie tray, lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are firm but center is slightly soft.
  8. For better presentation, push a few more Reeses pieces candies on top of the cookies before they cool completely. Enjoy immediately or make cookie sandwiches.
  9. For cookie sandwiches, allow cookies to cool completely and then, flip half the cookies and use a spatula to frost them with buttercream icing. Cover with remaining cookies and press gently. Stick mini Reeses peanut butter cups and Reeses pieces along the sides and enjoy!

Notes
