Ingredients:

1 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour

1 Teaspoon Baking Soda

1/2 Teaspoon Salt

1 Stick Butter (I used ½ butter and ½ Shortening)

1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar

1 Egg

1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

6 Large Reese Cups (I used 2 jumbo reese bars)

3/4 Cup Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Directions:

Chop up Reese cups; set aside. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl beat the butter and sugars until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix to combine. Gradually add the flour mixture until fully incorporated. Fold in the Reese cups and chocolate chips. Drop tablespoon size mounds of dough onto a cookie sheet and bake in a pre-heated 375 degree oven for 11 to 13 minutes or until light brown around the edges.
