Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini Reese’s peanut butter cups (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well.
- Lightly grease a 6–8 inch cast iron skillet with butter or cooking spray.
- Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt into the wet ingredients. Fold in the chopped Reese’s, saving a few for topping. Press the dough evenly into the skillet and dot the top with reserved candy.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is just set.
- Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve warm straight from the skillet with ice cream or extra peanut butter cups if desired.
Notes
- Underbake slightly for a gooey center.
- Reserve a few Reese’s pieces to press on top before baking.
- Store leftovers in the skillet covered with foil for up to 2 days.
