Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips ((can be substituted with semi-sweet chips))

Instruction

  • Using a hand mixer, cream together butter and sugars. Add egg and vanilla. Mix until combined.
  • Next, add peanut butter. Mix until well combined. Add the dry ingredients, and beat on low speed just until no flour streaks remain. Use a wooden spoon to fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Cover the dough, and transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes. 
  • When you're ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet with cooking spray or line with a silicone mat.
  • Scoop dough out of bowl and roll into balls. About 2 tablespoons of dough for each ball. Place dough on the cookie sheet 2 inches apart, and bake for 13 to 15 minutes just until the edges are lightly brown and the centers are soft.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and place on cooling rack. Enjoy!
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
