Reese's Chewy Chocolate Cookies

I know, I know, this recipe is on the bag of Reese's chips, but it is one of our family favorites! It is easy to make, makes a lot of cookies, and Chuck LOVES them! I use my Pampered Chef scoop to measure these out on the cookie sheets, it gives pretty good sized cookies and the dough melts down well. Enjoy!

REESE’S CHEWY CHOCOLATE COOKIES

2 cups flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
1 1/4 cups (2 ½ sticks) butter or margarine, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 10 oz. pkg. Reese’s peanut butter chips

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Stir together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. 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 teaspoon onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 9 minutes. Do not overbake, cookies will be soft. They will puff while baking and flatten while cooling. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool complete. Makes 4 ½ dozen cookies.
