Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 0.75 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
Step 4
Add in the creamy peanut butter and mix until well combined.
Step 5
Beat in the large egg and pure vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 7
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula or spoon.
Step 8
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 9
Gently press each ball of dough down slightly with the back of a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly golden. The centers may look a little underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool.
Step 11
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Enjoy your peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
