Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup peanut butter creamy or chunky
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Mix Peanut Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Use a hand mixer or spoon to blend these ingredients until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well incorporated.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the peanut butter mixture, stirring until everything is fully combined.
  5. Stir in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
  6. Scoop and Bake: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie. Bake in your preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges begin to golden.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
