Peanut Butter Reese's Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are a mouthful to say and a mouthful of goodie goodness!


Here is what you'll need: 
* 3/4 cup butter (softened)
* 1/2 cup peanut butter
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 1/2 cup brown sugar 
* 2 eggs
* 1 TBSP honey
* 1 TSP vanilla
* 2 1/4 cup flour 
* 1 TSP baking soda
* 1/2 TSP salt
* 1 small box instant vanilla pudding 
* 1 cup chocolate chips
* 1 cup Reese's Pieces
* 1 cup dried banana chips (broken)

In a bowl combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and pudding mix and set aside for later. 
In a large mixing bowl (I used my Kitchen Aide Mixer) combine butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar until fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla, and honey and beat again until completely mixed. 
Slowly add the dry ingredients, a little at a time. Not all at once. 
Stir in the chocolate chips, Reese's, and banana chips by hand with a spoon.

Drop by spoon onto a baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches in between each cookie. Bake at 350 degrees for about 14 minutes. Cool on pan for 3-4 minutes, then remove to a wire rack. Store in a tightly covered container. Makes about 36 cookies.


Combine the flour, baking soda, salt and pudding mix. Set this aside for later. 

Then I used my wonderful Kitchen Aide Stand Mixer to mix the next set of ingredients. Beat together the butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar until fluffy. 

((These little 1/4 cup packages by Imperial Sugar are AMAZING! No measuring cup required... I just needed two of these 1/4 cup packages to get my 1/2 cup of brown sugar needed for this recipe!))

Oh that's just Duke... waiting patiently to have a lick of batter. :0

Ok... back to the cookies. Here is my mixer beating together the butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar .

Next, add in the vanilla, honey and eggs. 

Now slowly add the dry ingredients that you set aside earlier. Turn your mixer on the slowest setting and using a spoon gently scoop the dry ingredients into the mixer bowl. 

Once you're done beating together all the ingredients, measure out your cup of Reese's Pieces and your chocolate chips. I just put them in one measuring cup. You are going to mix these in BY HAND (with a spoon) don't use your mixer for this part. (OH I left our the banana chips.. but you can add them )
