Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 120 grams peanut butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 150 grams brown sugar, packed
- 1 unit large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 150 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out the dough, rolling each piece into a ball (approximately 1.5 tablespoons per cookie).
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently press down on each dough ball with the back of a fork to flatten slightly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look soft. Do not overbake!
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft, chewy chocolate peanut butter cookies!
