Reese's Chewy Chocolate Cookies

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups (10 oz. pkg.) Reese's peanut butter chips

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Stir together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Beat butter and sugar in large bowl with mixer until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Gradually add flour mixture, beating well. Stir in peanut butter chips.
3. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8-9 minutes. (Do not overbake; cookies will be soft. They will puff while baking and flatten while cooling.) Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.

Makes about 4 1/2 dozen cookies.

PAN RECIPE: Spread batter in greased 15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 1 inch jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350F. 20 minutes or until set. Cool completely in pan or on wire rack; cut into bars.

Tried these cookies today... delicious. I used butterscotch chips instead. Very soft and chewy!
