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, combine the unsalted butter, creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl with the wet ingredients, and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Stir in the quick-cooking oats and semi-sweet chocolate chips by hand using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough (or use a cookie scoop) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, which is okay—they will set as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
