Triple Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies are thick and chewy. And chubby. They are loaded with chopped mini peanut butter cups, peanut butter morsels and of course, creamy peanut butter.

Make them to nibble all weekend long. You’ll make all the peanut butter-lovers in your house so happy.

 

 ■1/2 cup butter, at room temperature

 ■1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

 ■1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar

 ■1 cup sugar

 ■2 teaspoon baking soda

 ■1 tablespoon vanilla extract

 ■1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter

 ■3 eggs, beaten

 ■4 1/2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats

 ■1 (8-ounce) bag Reese’s mini peanut butter cups, coarsely chopped

 ■1/3 cup peanut butter morsels

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

Cream butter and sugars together in a mixing bowl. Add baking soda, vanilla, peanut butter and eggs and mix well. Add oats and stir to blend. Stir in peanut butter cups and peanut butter morsels. Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons, 2 inches apart, onto an ungreased or parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a drinking glass. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The cookies should be soft and lightly browned. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
