Reese’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites represent the ultimate indulgence for lovers of both peanut butter and chocolate, combining the rich, creamy texture of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups with the classic comfort of chocolate chip cookies. The origins of this delectable treat lie in the happy collision of two American classics. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups were first introduced in the 1920s and quickly became a staple of the candy aisle, while chocolate chip cookies have been a beloved favorite since their accidental invention at the Toll House Inn during the 1930s. This simple recipe harmoniously marries the two, creating an easy-to-make snack that’s perfect for dessert, a party treat, or a delightful surprise for any occasion.
These Reese's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites can be served as is for a delicious snack or dressed up for a more decadent experience. They pair wonderfully with a cold glass of milk, which complements the richness of the chocolate and peanut butter. For those who want a bit of contrast, serving these bites alongside a bowl of vanilla ice cream can amplify the flavors and provide a delightful mix of temperatures and textures. These bites can also be a fun topping crumbled over yogurt or ice cream to add some crunch and flavor.

Reese’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites

Ingredients:
- 1 package of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup miniatures
- 1 roll of refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
- 1 roll of refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the cookie dough package, typically around 350°F (175°C).
2. While the oven is heating, unwrap the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and set them aside.
3. Open the roll of chocolate chip cookie dough and slice it into segments about 1 to 1.5 inches thick, according to the number of Reese’s cups available.
4. Flatten each segment of dough slightly and place a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup in the center. Wrap the cookie dough around the peanut butter cup, completely encasing it, and roll it into a ball.
5. Place the dough balls on an ungreased baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow room for spreading.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The exact time may vary depending on your oven and the size of your cookie bites, so keep an eye on them.
7. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a minute or two. Then transfer the cookie bites to a wire rack to cool further. Be aware that the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups inside will be molten and hot.
