It never fails, my kids tell me minutes before they are having a group of kids come over or that they need something for their bake sale at 8 PM the night before!

So, what do you do? Well, I have a couple of tricks up my sleeve for exactly this occasion.

One of my go-to cookie recipes, when I am in a pinch, is our 3-ingredient cake mix cookies! These will literally be ready in under 15 minutes!

But, if you are looking to take your cookie hacks to the next level, I will tell you a little secret… I keep a container of refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough and a bag of Reese’s Bite-Sized Peanut Butter Cups in case of a dessert emergency! These Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites will be the best seller at your next bake sale!!

Looking for another great chocolate peanut butter cookie? Our soft and chewy, Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies (aka Hershey Kiss Cookies) are the perfect treat to satisfy your chocolate peanut butter fix! 

More in a brownie mood? Our Peanut Butter Brownies are soft and chewy and swirled with creamy peanut butter!

That’s right – we have all had dessert emergencies, but if you keep these two items with you at all times, you will always be prepared for that dreaded occasion.

How did I learn about this “always be prepared for dessert” hack?

So the other night we went out to dinner with our friends, Danny & Sherrie. We decided to go back to their house for dessert – Sherrie said she could whip something up.

Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites

We told her we didn’t want her to go through the trouble, we could just grab something on the way – she swore to us it really wasn’t any trouble.

So when Sherrie pulled these Reese’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites out of the oven I begged her for the recipe!

When she told me the recipe I couldn’t believe it -not to mention my recent obsession with bite-sized anything!!! (When they are bite-sized the calories don’t actually count – true story!!)

I get asked all the time what kind of mini muffin pan I use because my cups pop out so easily. I live for anything silicon and this is the muffin pan I use!

    I’m a peanut butter freak I love peanut butter anything this just sounds amazing and I’m going to try it tomorrow thank you.

  2. are you pressing the dough in the pan leaving a hole in the middle or just putting a ball of dough in it? was just wondering how the reese is so perfect inside the cookie

    1. You can form them around the pan a little if you want, but sometimes the dough has a mind of its own while it is baking. As soon as it comes out of the oven you want to press the peanut butter cup in the middle and press it down as much as you can.

    I have made these 3 times and the last 2 have been a fail. They come apart when I try to take them out of pan. I grease, cool, what am I doing wrong?

    1. Not sure why it would work the first time and not the next? Did you grease the pan differently. I find original pam to work the best for me. Did you let the pan completely cool on the 2nd batch?

    I have made this before and I add a dollop of cream cheese icing and sprinkles to the top and everyone loves these!
