Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, reserving a few to sprinkle on top if desired.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top for decoration.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
