Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place parchment paper on the cookie sheets you plan on using.
- Combine chocolate chips and chocolate squares in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until melted (you will need to stop the microwave and stir the chips every two minutes to prevent the chocolate from burning). Cool slightly.
- Combine sugar and 1/2 cup shortening in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed until blended and crumbly. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add salt and vanilla. Reduce the speed of the mixer. Add chocolate slowly. Mix well. Stir in the flour and baking soda with a spoon until well blended. Shape dough into 1 1/4 inch balls and place a couple of inches apart on an ungreased parchment covered baking sheet.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until set. Don't overbake! Press the peanut butter cup into the center of each cookie immediately after removing from oven. Cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer the cookies to another surface.
- Place the peanut butter chips in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave until smooth (you will need to stir after every minute needed in the microwave to prevent burning). Scrape the melted peanut butter chips into a frosting piping bag with a round, small tip. Squeeze the frosting in a drizzled zig-zag pattern. Enjoy!

Steps:
- The first thing you need to decide is whether you will be using full size or mini Reese's cups. If you choose the full size, you will need a regular size muffin tin, but if you choose the minis you will need a mini muffin tin. I think the full size makes a better cookie.
- Preheat oven according to the cookie dough instructions, usually about 350°fF.
- Spray the muffin tins with butter spray.
- Ball up the cookie dough as though you are making cookies.
- Press enough dough into each tin to fill about half way.
- Bake according to cookie dough instructions.
- The cookies will puff up and fill the muffin tin.
- As soon as the cookies are done, take the tin out of the oven and press an unwrapped Reese's Cup into the center of each tin. This will create a peanut butter cookie crust around the cup.
- Let them set for a couple of minutes, while the chocolate and peanut butter melt.
- Get a nice tall glass of milk and enjoy this delicious treat!

Tips:
- To ensure your cookies have a chewy texture, do not overmix the dough. Mix until the ingredients are just combined.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. You can use a variety of chocolate chips, such as semisweet, milk chocolate, or dark chocolate.
- For a more intense peanut butter flavor, use a natural peanut butter that has no added sugar or oils.
- If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use two spoons to drop the dough onto the baking sheet.
- Be sure to press a Reese's cup into the center of each cookie dough ball before baking. This will create a gooey chocolate peanut butter center.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
These Reese's Cup Cookies are the perfect treat for any chocolate and peanut butter lover. They are soft, chewy, and packed with flavor. With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily make these cookies at home. So next time you're craving a sweet treat, give these Reese's Cup Cookies a try!
