Reese's Pieces Cookies

 My husband LOVES Reese's Pieces.  He can down a bag of them in a matter of minutes.  I, on the other hand, don't fancy those peanut butter candies much.  Don't get me wrong, if they are in front of my face, I will certainly eat them.  I just wouldn't choose them for my treat.  Give me some almond M&M's instead.  But being the loving wife that I am, I bought a bag of the Reese's Pieces baking bits to make cookies for my hungry husband.  I used the recipe on the back of the bag.  End result:  soooo good!  Seeing that I've eaten 4 cookies already today, they are better than I thought they would be.  They are chewy and moist and I love the hint of peanut butter from the Reese's Pieces.  Forgive me Reese's Pieces for doubting you!

Reese's Pieces Cookies

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
3 cups oatmeal
2 cups flour
1 cup chocolate chips (I added these just because)
1 bag Reese's Pieces baking bits

Cream butter and sugars.  Add eggs and mix well.  Add vanilla, dry ingredients and Reese's Pieces.  Spoon onto cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 11 minutes.
