Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 unit large egg
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup peanut butter chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 5

Mix in the creamy peanut butter until evenly incorporated.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 7

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter chips using a spatula.

Step 8

Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Enjoy your Ruth's Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
