- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls with your hands. Place each cookie dough ball onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between them.
- Gently flatten the tops of the dough balls with your hand or the back of a spoon to help them spread while baking.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are just set. The cookies may look slightly underbaked in the center — they will firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips & Variations
- Make them extra gooey: Press a few extra Reese’s Pieces or chopped peanut butter cups on top of each dough ball before baking for a bakery-style finish.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer freshness, freeze the baked cookies or unbaked dough balls.
- Chill for thicker cookies: If you prefer thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
With triple the peanut butter and just the right amount of sweetness, these cookies are a decadent treat you’ll want to make again and again!
