Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a mixer with a paddle attachment, combine the sugars, butter and peanut butter. Beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Sift together the flour, the baking soda and the salt and add to the dough. Dough should be stiff enough to shape with your hands. Make 1-inch balls and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Gently press thumb into the balls to flatten the cookies slightly and make an indentation in the center of the cookie. Press 3 or 4 chocolate chips into the indentation.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Remove cookies from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool.

    My brother and I have little experience baking, and we were able to cook these cookies perfectly. They were so delicious and we followed the recipe exactly. The peanut butter flavor was there, but it wasn't overbearing, and the cookies were very moist and chewy. I will be making these again soon!

    wish i would have read the reviews first too, I would have made the adjustments...

    Double the peanut butter
    Shorten the cook time to about 9-11 minutes
    3-4 chocolate chips just don't cut it, either sprinkle them or use like 10 more, or kisses.
    Add a teaspoon of vanilla

    On a positive note, they are really easy and I had all of the ingredients on hand without any special prep.
