I know what you're thinking. BFD it's a Reese's. I know, I know but if you look closely it says 2 8oz cups. Yes sir two giant Reese's.
That's my sister. She's too pretty to be a doctor, but she is. I find it terribly ironic she works in health care and is holding a pound of Reese's. Whatevs.
But what could I do with these half-pound pieces of heaven? Aha! A cookie! A GIANT cookie!
I stumbled upon Martha's recipe for skillet cookie, so I went with that but nixed the chocolate chips.
Start by creaming together 3/4 cup of butter (1.5 sticks) with 1/2 cup of white sugar and 3/4 cup dark brown sugar.
Add two teaspoons of vanilla along with one egg. Stir stir stir!
In a separate bowl combine two cups of flour, one teaspoon baking soda and a half teaspoon of salt. Pour that into the butter/sugar mixture.
Make sure to not stir too much or you'll end up with a giant tough cookie.
Press into a greased pie plate.
Press one of the Reese's cups into the center of the dough and lick your fingers clean.
Hehehe. I honestly baked this because I thought it would be funny, but it's actually quite good.
Reese's Pacman! If you happen to have an oversized Reese's, try this out! I suppose you could make the individual sized ones but what fun is that?
