        Instructions:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

        Step 1: Preheat and Prepare<\/strong><\/h4>\n
          \n
        1. Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C) <\/strong>. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          <\/div>\n
          \n

          Step 2: Cream the Wet Ingredients<\/strong><\/h4>\n
            \n
          1. In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).<\/li>\n
          2. \n
              \n
            1. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
              <\/div>\n
              \n

              Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients<\/strong><\/h4>\n
                \n
              1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.<\/li>\n
              2. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
              3. \n

                Step 4: Fold in the Mix-ins<\/strong><\/h4>\n
                  \n
                1. Gently fold in the chocolate chips, chopped Reese\u2019s peanut butter cups, and roasted peanuts (if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                  <\/div>\n
                  \n

                  Step 5: Scoop and Shape the Cookies<\/strong><\/h4>\n
                    \n
                  1. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.<\/li>\n
                  2. Press a Reese\u2019s peanut butter cup half into the top of each cookie dough ball, if desired.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
                  3. \n
                      \n
                    1. lightly with flaky sea salt for an extra touch of flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
                      <\/div>\n
                      \n

                      Step 6: Bake the Cookies<\/strong><\/h4>\n
                        \n
                      1. Bake for 10-12 minutes <\/strong>, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly soft. The cookies will continue to set as they cool.<\/li>\n
                      2. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
                      3. \n

                        Step 7: Serve and Store<\/strong><\/h4>\n
                          \n
                        1. Once cooled, serve the cookies with a tall glass of milk or enjoy them as-is!<\/li>\n
                        2. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days <\/strong>or freeze for longer storage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
