Cookie Making
- In a stand mixer, beat the softened butter along with light brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add creamy peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, corn starch, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
- While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll the dough into 1.5-tablespoon balls, then coat them lightly in granulated sugar. Place the balls on the prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, then gently indent the warm cookies with chilled Reese's.
- Microwave mini marshmallows in small batches until they puff up. Carefully stretch and pull them over the cooled cookies.
- Melt dark chocolate wafers in the microwave and use them to secure the Reese's onto each cookie. Pipe chocolate legs and attach small candy eyes.
- Allow decorations to set before serving.
