How to make homemade Reeses

My sister and I discovered how to make these Reese's Peanut Butter Cups on a day we had off from school. We were both bored and found this recipe on www.allrecipes.com. The first time we made them, my sister added a 1/4 tablespoon of salt instead of a teaspoon, not knowing this I took a huge bite of the dough and could taste the grains of salt (gross). After this incident, my sister and I started again and now love this dessert! Enjoy:)
