Chocolate Butter Cup Cookies

I made these cookies to take and share at work. I wanted to thank everyone because I am a new employee and everyone has been very nice and welcoming.
The feedback was excellent, everyone loved them, even early in the morning with coffee at our 6:30am staff meeting. I love putting smiles on people's faces and this definitely did the trick!

Chocolate Butter Cup Cookies

Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup baking cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 12oz bag of white chocolate chips
1 package (13 ounces) Reese's miniature butter cups candies

Directions
In a large bowl, cream butter, 1 cup sugar and brown sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, cocoa and baking soda; gradually add to creamed mixture just until combined. Mix in 1 cup of white chocolate chips.
Refrigerate dough for at least one hour to decrease stickiness of dough.
Shape dough around each candy. (May need to use two large metal spoons in place of hands to shape cookies)
Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 8-12 minutes or until top is slightly cracked. Cool for 3 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
Melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips and drizzle over cookies.
