Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup butter-flavored shortening
  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar, (firmly packed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, using a hand-held electric mixer, cream peanut butter, shortening, and brown sugar.
  • Add egg and beat until combined. Mix in milk and vanilla.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to the peanut butter mixture. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Scoop the dough with a medium cookie scoop, slightly overfilled, and arrange on ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten balls slightly with your hand or the bottom of a glass. Crosshatch if desired. (I don't with these cookies)
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until center of cookies appear just slightly wet, and edges are set. The cookies will continue cooking and set as they cool.
  • Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 15 minutes, then remove to wire baking rack to cool completely.
