Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the beaten eggs and pure vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until fully combined, about 1 minute.
  4. Stir in the creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the peanut butter mixture, mixing on low until just combined.
  6. Fold in the Peanut M&Ms, milk chocolate chips, and mini Reese Cups using a spatula.
  7. Using a large ice cream scoop, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each scoop about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake the cookies for 13-14 minutes until the edges are golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
