1 t vanilla extract
3 c all-purpose flour
1 t baking soda
½ t baking powder

For the Cheesecake Filling:

¼ c granulated sugar
1 t vanilla extract

For the Chocolate Drizzle:

Directions:
1. Prepare the Cookie Dough:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Stir in the mini Reese’s Pieces, chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and white chocolate chips.

2. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:
In a small bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

3. Assemble the Cookies:
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the cookie dough and flatten them into disks.

Place a teaspoon of the cheesecake filling in the center of half of the disks.

Top each filled disk with another disk of dough, then gently press the edges together to seal.

Place the assembled cookies on the prepared baking sheets.

4. Bake the Cookies:
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a

few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

5. Add the Chocolate Drizzle:
Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle the melted chocolate chips over the tops of the cookies.

Let the chocolate set before serving.

These Reese’s Peanut Butter Cheesecake Cookies are rich, creamy, and absolutely irresistible—perfect for any peanut butter and chocolate lover! Enjoy every decadent bite!
