Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the peanut butter and mix until smooth.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, ensuring everything is well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are cool, place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl.
Gently roll each cookie in the powdered sugar, ensuring they’re fully coated. Repeat the process a second time for an extra snowy coating.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
