Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Beat cookie dough and peanut butter in large bowl until combined and smooth.
  • Stir in chocolate and peanut butter chips.
  • Roll dough into 1 inch sized balls and place onto ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15 minutes and cool on wire rack.

Notes

  1. Choose Quality Ingredients: Opt for high-quality peanut butter and chocolate chips to enhance the flavor of your cookies. Creamy peanut butter works best for a smooth texture, while using a combination of miniature chocolate chips and peanut butter-filled morsels adds delightful bursts of flavor to every bite.
  2. Properly Incorporate Ingredients: When beating the cookie dough and peanut butter together, ensure thorough mixing until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined. This ensures that each cookie will have a consistent texture and flavor throughout.
  3. Mind the Baking Time: Keep a close eye on the cookies while they bake. Since oven temperatures can vary, start checking for doneness around the 12- to 15-minute mark. Overbaking can result in dry cookies, while underbaking may lead to a doughy texture. Aim for a golden brown color around the edges for perfectly baked cookies.
