Instructions
Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, and oats. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together until they are fluffy. Mix in the peanut butter, followed by the egg and vanilla. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet. Fold in the Reese's Pieces.
Use a scoop to dole out the dough onto a cookie sheet. The dollops stay fat, so flatten them by hand or with a glass. Bake teaspoon-sized scoops for 11 to 13 minutes.
Let them cool on the sheet for about 10 minutes, then move them to a rack. Store in an airtight container.
