25 Days of Cookies: Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Cookies

pbccookies

I think peanut butter baking morsels are one the best baking creations ever. Instead of trying to add regular peanut butter to kick up a recipe, you can just add some chips for a perfectly balanced taste. And really, mixing them up with some regular chocolate chips make for a quick satisfying snack, too! (I’m not the only one who’s done that, right?)

Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Cookies

1 1/2 cups butter, melted
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups peanut butter chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl, mix together butter and sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt; gradually stir into the butter mixture. Mix in peanut butter chips. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes in preheated oven. Cool for 1 minute before placing on wire racks to cool completely.
