Holiday Link Party {Recipe- Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies}
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup natural chunky peanut butter (about 9 ounces / 280 grams) (I used creamy PB and peanuts)
1/2 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated / caster sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick / 125 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 ½ tablespoons honey
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 ounces / 155 grams semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C.
- Line 3 heavy large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the peanut butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, honey, egg, and vanilla in a large bowl until well blended.
- Stir the dry ingredients into the peanut butter mixture in 2 additions.
- Stir in the chopped chocolate
- Scoop about 3 tablespoonfuls of dough for each cookie onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 1/2 inches apart.
- Bake for about 12 minutes, or until the cookies puff and begin to brown on top but are still very soft to the touch.
- Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes.
- Using a metal spatula, transfer the cookies to a rack and eat warm or cool completely.
Those look super yummy! Who doesn't love chocolate combined with peanut butter?!!!
Megan, those look sooooo good! Chocolate and peanut butter are a divinely inspired pairing, so far as I am concerned. 😉
Is there anything better than peanut butter and chocolate? I think not. And James looks like a much tidier baker than my 21 month old 🙂
SO cute! They look delish! And I am loving your timer! 🙂
