A chunky Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe with even more chunk--from chocolate! If you love chocolate and peanut butter, these cookies are for you. A combo of dark and milk chocolate, plus a peanut crunch makes these cookies the best!
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 ½ cup chunky peanut butter
- ⅓ cup whole milk
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 7 ounce dark chocolate (60% cocoa+), chopped
- 11 ounce package milk chocolate morsels
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugars with peanut butter until fully mixed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add milk, vanilla, and eggs. Beat until combined.
- Add in flour, salt, baking powder, and cornstarch, just until cookie dough combines. Do not overbeat.
- Fold in chopped chocolate chunks and morsels.
- Drop by large tablespoon onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Use a fork to make criss-cross marks on top of each cookie.
- Bake in a 375 degree oven for 10-13 minutes. Remove and cool completely!
Notes
- Use parchment paper. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper first for easy clean up!
- Freezing dough. Make the dough ahead of time, then freeze the cookie dough balls on the baking sheet. Once solid, transfer to a freezer bag and store for up to 3 months. When you're ready to bake them, you can put them in the oven frozen. Just add a few more minutes of baking time.
- White chocolate variation. Swap the dark chocolate for white chocolate for a sweet twist.
