Reese's Puffs Treats

Hey. This Recipe is delicious. So delicious. This recipe was created by me and my handsome fiance, Patrick...so this recipe just has a lot of love in it. Here ya go!

1st Layer
1/2 Cup of Butter
1 Cup Peanut Butter
10 oz Marshmallows
6 Cups Reese's Puffs cereal

2nd Layer
16 mini Reese's Cups, Chopped

3rd Layer
1/4 Cup of Butter
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
1 Cup of (smashed into bits!) Reese's Puffs

First layer first (obviously!): Melt the half cup of butter into a large sauce pan. Once melted, add your 10 oz of marshmallows and melt until the mixture is nice and smooth. Next, add the peanut butter and stir until all is mixed together. Then you add the 6 cups of Reese's Puffs. Mix well and make sure the puffs are mixed in well. Then pour mixture into a 9x9 cake pan and spread evenly.
Second Layer: This is easy. All you've gotta do is cut the mini Reese's however you want (big or small) and sprinkle them all over your first layer.
Third Layer: Melt the butter, then add the peanut butter. After you've mixed those together, take your cup of finely smashed Reese's Puffs and add them to the concoction and stir. Then, pour over your masterpiece and let it sit for a bit. Then cut your creation into squares and enjoy:)

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

So, I'm super excited for this particular recipe because its my very own! That's right, I've created my first recipe, and if you couldn't tell, I can't wait to share it with you:)

1/2 Cup Butter
3/4 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup Peanut Butter
1 tsp Vanilla
2 Eggs
3 Cups Flour
3/4 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 Bag Peanut Butter Chips
1/2 Bag Milk Chocolate Chips

Mix butter, sugar, and brown sugar together until soft. Next, add the peanut butter, vanilla, and eggs and beat until smooth. When mix is smooth, add flour, salt, and powder. Mix well until you have your dough, which should be almost clay-like. Next, add the chips together (I highly recommend using Resse's Peanut Butter Chips...yum) and make sure you stir by hand. Then, roll cookies into a one-inch ball and place on an ungreased cookie sheet and stick in the oven at 375 degrees for 8 minutes. Let cool and enjoy:)
