Ingredients:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chunks or chips
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line baking sheets with parchment paper
In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and well combined
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined
Fold in the chocolate chunks or chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely
Once completely cooled, store in an airtight container
