Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
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 unsalted butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed in the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each mound of dough slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will set as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with a glass of milk or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
