Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and beat until fully combined.
In a separate, smaller bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop dough by rounded tablespoons and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently press the tops of the cookies with the back of a spoon to flatten slightly.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden. The centers may still appear slightly undercooked, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to rest on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
