Reeses peanut butter chocolate cookies recipe on back of package

Q: What is the secret to good cookies?

Dont over-mix the cookie dough. Cream the butter and sugar for only as long as you need to– a recipe usually specifies the amount of time. Dont begin beating then leave the room with the mixer running. Whipping too much air into the dough will cause your cookies to collapse as they bake.

What peanut butter is in Reese's?

"These are not P.B. cookies with choc. chips, or chocolate cookies with P.B. chips. These are the original Reese's P.B. chip cookies that they used to print on the back of the bag. They don't print this recipe anymore, but it has been my favorite since childhood. They are a traditional cookie with P.B. chips...Delicious! A great alternative to choc. chip cookies for those who don't like chocolate or want something different."

Can I add chocolate chips with the peanut butter chips
Quick question...is this a high altitude recipe? I'm asking because 1st batch 2/3's of dough came out flat. When I added 1/4 C more flour to the remaining 1/3 batch. They still flat just not as flat. I used butter as instructed. Here's a pic of the 2 batches, side by side. The batch on right is 1st, on left is 2nd
They were incredible! I made two batches off this one recipe followed exactly (except I also added Heath toffee bits, yum), first 26 cookies and then 14 more two days later. Thanks EMcooks!
They turned out great I made a triple batch and got 60 I think next time I will add some chopped peanuts or walnuts for another texture maby some coco power to break up the flavor.

What makes cookies stay soft and chewy?

Baking at 375 degrees F as opposed to a lower temperature will help cookies stay soft: they'll bake faster which means they aren't in the hot, drying air of the oven too long. Pull the cookie sheet out of the oven when the cookies are just set: underbaking is better than overbaking.

How do you keep peanut butter cookies from going flat?

Use a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Coating your baking sheet with nonstick spray or butter creates an overly greasy foundation, causing the cookies to spread. I always recommend a silicone baking mat because they grip onto the bottom of your cookie dough, preventing the cookies from spreading too much.
