Ingredients
  • 1 stick of butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (I like Reese's)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • *Optional: 1/2 cup of peanut butter chips
  • 1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Directions
  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Beat butter, sugar and peanut butter together until creamy.
  3. Add egg and vanilla; beat well.
  4. Stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating until well blended.
  5. Stir in peanut butter and chocolate chips.
  6. I like to use a cookie scooper to drop dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. About a teaspoonful. 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake 12 to 16 minutes or until lightly brown around edges.
  8. Let cool on sheet for one minute, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.

These look yummy. I love peanut butter and chocolate together, and I really love cookies.


Hi! The cookies look delicious! How much butter exactly do I need? Because they sell here 100g (3.5 oz) or 250g (8.8 oz) sticks. Thank you for the recipe!


I had no chocolate chips so I used coconut instead. Came out AWESOME. Thanks for sharing.


I just got done making these! They were a hit at my house! They are so soft! Thanks for the recipe!


This time I used smart balance instead of butter. Not nearly as rich - but light and fluffy. Next time I'll try upping the amount of PB to adjust.


My goodness these sound good!!


This does really look good though.

Coconut instead of chocolate chips. Be generous. You can even sprinkle a bunch on top of the cookies just before baking.
