Soft, chewy, and packed with chocolate chips, these cookies have just the right amount of peanut butter flavor while keeping the classic chocolate chip cookie texture! No chilling required, just mix, bake, and enjoy!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, beat together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
½ cup unsalted butter, 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, ¾ cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup granulated sugar
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
1 large egg, 1 egg yolk, 3 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add in the flour, baking soda, and salts to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoom baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
Scoop about 2-3 tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Top with some of the mini chocolate chips then bake for 11-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will look slightly underbaked but will set as they cool.
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
If you prefer thinner cookies gently flatten the cookie a little bit when you add in the mini chocolate chips on top. If you prefer them a little thicker, leave them as is (Check the photos in the article)
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
