Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

These are the most delicious peanut butter cookies ever. Be warned, they are very sweet. Also, Justin and I like them much better the next day.

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/3 cups flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter chips
10 reeses peanut butter cups, cut into eighths

Cream together the butter, peanut butter and sugars. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Combine the flour, cocoa and baking soda. Add to the cream mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and peanut butter cups. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Let cool
* I always freeze the peanut butter cups before cutting them up and adding them.
