Super Easy Reese's Cookies!

First off, I'm sorry for the lack of posts.  I actually have been cooking/baking (at one point, I made something new for 7 days in a row!) and now have a backlog of around fifteen items I need to write up.  Grad school's been crazy busy lately, but I should be finishing up my first semester within the next two weeks!  And now, on to the first cookies I've managed to bake!  (It's very hard to mess these up...)

This is THE easiest cookie recipe I've ever seen and the results are delicious!  This semester, I've developed an odd affinity to cooking blogs and I stumbled upon this one.  It uses a total of two ingredients!  Yes, you read that right - TWO!


Ingredients:
40 mini Reese's Peanut Butter cups
1 egg


Directions:
1.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2.  Unwrap the mini Reese's.  Easy enough, especially when you sneakily taste test a few of them while you work :)

2.  Break up the Reese's.  The recipe I found recommended using a food processor to smoothly blend them, but I don't have one.  I ended up just using a fork to coarsely break them up since we'll be using a mixer later.
3.  Add an egg.

4.  Grab a mixer and mix it all together.

  5.  Drop onto cookie sheet.

 6.  And bake for 10-11 minutes!  That's how easy it is!

Verdict:  These are so easy and tasty!  Since I didn't have a food processor, my cookies ended up having chunks of Reese's in it.  And you know what?  It worked out for the best because I had melty chocolate and peanut butter bits when they came out of the oven!  I'd definitely do it that way again.  One thing though, since it is made with many Reese's candies, it does have that slightly sickly sweet taste to it which gets overpowering if you eat eight in a row.  I know from experience.
