Note

For added flavor, chop up Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and fold them into the dough along with the chips.

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

If you prefer a chewier cookie, slightly underbake them by 1-2 minutes.

Butter can be substituted for shortening for a richer flavor, though the texture may be slightly crisper.
