Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

2️⃣ Whisk the Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

3️⃣ Cream the Butter and Sugars

In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

4️⃣ Add the Egg, Vanilla, and Cream Cheese

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Add the cream cheese and mix until smooth.

5️⃣ Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Gradually mix in the dry ingredients just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

6️⃣ Fold in the Mix-ins

Gently fold in the mini Reese’s Pieces, chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

7️⃣ Scoop and Bake

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie, place them on the baking sheet, and flatten slightly. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.

8️⃣ Cool and Drizzle

Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Drizzle with melted semi-sweet chocolate once cooled.

Notes

Storage: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4-5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months for longer storage.
Cream Cheese: Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing to ensure a smooth, creamy texture in the cookie dough.
