    Now it's time to add in the Reese’s Pieces. I dare you not to sneak a few during the step. It's okay if you do, I won't tell! You'll want to make sure to save some Reese's Pieces for later for cookie decorating.

    On a non-stick or parchment paper lined pan, place tablespoon sized balls of dough evenly spaced. Slightly flatten each dough ball with a spoon. Bake for 12-15 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a cooling rack.

    Once the cookies have cooled, it is time to add some yummy frosting on the bottom side of a cookie.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do you store these Reese's Pieces sandwich cookies?

    You can store these in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

    What can I fill the cookie with besides vanilla frosting?

    You can fill these cookies with ice cream to make an ice cream sandwich. You can also make your own peanut butter frosting. Check out this peanut butter frosting recipe from Love Bakes Good Cakes.

    I don't want to make a cookie sandwich. Do the chocolate cookies with Reese's Pieces taste good on their own.

    You bet! They taste amazing and are so rich!

    Want to teach your kids to cook?

    I have long been a proponent of cooking with kids. There are so many things kids learn helping out in the kitchen. Math, reading, chemistry, cooperation and more are used while following a recipe.

    Raddish is a monthly subscription box for kids that is a cooking club, culinary lesson, and mealtime solution all-in-one. Young children get to work with an adult, while older kids and teens independently indulge their culinary curiosity! And it’s perfect for picky eaters — kids who cook, eat!

    ​A new kit is delivered to your doorstep every month!

    Each kit features a new culinary theme! You’ll also get a shopping list emailed to you prior to delivery so you will be ready to cook. These kits are a great way for kids to develop new cooking skills and confidence in the kitchen while the entire family builds memories together. Find out more here.
