Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 sticks butter (room temperature)
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Add-ins
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare two ungreased baking sheets to ensure even baking of the cookies.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside for later.
- Cream Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, use a mixer to cream together the softened butter, creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, which helps incorporate air for a better texture.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract until well blended, ensuring the batter is smooth and consistent.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Then gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips to distribute them evenly without overworking the dough.
- Shape Cookies: Use a tablespoon to scoop portions of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Space them adequately apart to allow for spreading during baking.
- Bake: Bake the cookies for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges turn a golden brown. If baking on two sheets simultaneously, switch their positions halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack before serving, ensuring they set properly for the best texture.
Notes
- Room temperature butter and peanut butter ensure better mixing and texture.
- Spacing dough properly prevents cookies from merging during baking.
- Switching baking sheet positions helps even out oven heat distribution.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- For softer cookies, slightly underbake them and allow residual heat to finish cooking.
