Reese's Peanut Butter Caramel Cookie Cake

If you know me, you know I LOVE peanut butter! I always eat it for breakfast with chopped banana, granola, and other fruit! I eat it by the spoonful, with apples, on yogurt, ice cream, everything!

No wonder I love Reeses so much! It combines my two favorites- Chocolate & Peanut butter. Can't get enough...

I decided to make this recipe I found on pinterest ( check out my pinterest) but of course I didn't have all the ingredients so I substituted alot of them. I thought I'd share my altered recipe so you don't have to spend money on unnecessary ingredients! 

 I love this decadent, chewy dessert! Caramel, Reeses, chocolate chips, and  peanut butter..What more could I ask for? :)

 I got these unique measuring cups at Pier 1.. love them!

           
                               a mountain of Reeses.... yum!

                                     The crispy burnt edges were my favorite part!

     Just look at that gooey caramel, melted chocolate & peanut butter...

    This is like a cross between peanut butter blossom cookies, cake, and bars with the crispy edges. 

    Take a bite about 10 minutes after they come out of the oven! It's best then! I like to eat them with vanilla almond milk while they're still warm!
