Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Using a spatula or spoon, fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with your hand or the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly underbaked (they will continue to cook on the baking sheet after removing them from the oven).
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Easy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies!
