Ingredients
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 Tablespoon milk
- ¾ cup mini Reese's Pieces candies
Instructions
- Beat butter with powdered sugar for about 3 minutes. Beat in flour, salt and peanut butter. Mixture will be crumbly. Add in milk and mix with hands.
- Dump mixture (will still be slightly crumbly) and knead dough together on a piece of parchment paper. Press into a 12x10 rectangle. Slide parchment paper onto a large baking sheet. Press the candies into the top of the dough.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. Cut immediately and allow to cool.
- Separate and store in air tight container. ENJOY.
Notes
- Make ahead. After combining the ingredients for the dough, roll into a log shape, about 2 ½ inches in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to bake. When ready to bake, slice log into ¼-inch slices, press candies on top of cookie and bake as directed. These will be shaped similarly to our icebox cookies.
