Ingredients

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter creamy or crunchy
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour measure the flour correctly
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups milk chocolate chips or chocolate chips of choice

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or ungreased baking sheet.
  • Using a mixer, mix the butter, sugars, peanut butter, eggs and vanilla together until combined.
  • Add in the flour, soda, and salt in and mix until just combined. Make sure you measure flour correctly, or cookies will be dry & crumbly. (Fluff flour, spoon flour into cup and level off with a knife.)
  • Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Using an ice cream scoop or large cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto parchment lined cookie sheets. Add some additional chocolate chips on top if you wish. Cookies will expand some, so 6 cookies per sheet is recommended.
  • Cook for 12-14 minutes at 350.
  • Remove cookies from oven and cool on baking sheet 2-3 minutes before placing on cooling rack.

Notes

Make sure you don't over-measure your flour.  You should fluff your flour, then spoon your flour into your measuring cup and then level it off with a knife.
