OVER THE TOP REESE’S COOKIES

Over the Top Reese’s Cookies

Over the Top Reese’s Cookies do not disappoint. These are thick and scrumptious while packing a full peanut butter punch!

This is an updated 2024 photo-this time I added the pb cups when the cookies were done so they would melt less. I placed the pieces on top before baking.
