Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 128 g Peanut butter ½ cup
  • 120 g Butter (room temperature, unsalted) ½ cup
  • 110 g Brown sugar 3/8 cup
  • 50 g Sugar(granulated) ¼ cup
  • 1 Eggs (room temperature) medium size
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 155 g All-purpose flour 1½ cups
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Baking soda
  • 160 g Dark chocolate (chopped/chips) ¾ cup
  • Chocolate chips to decorate

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, add peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, white sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed till creamy and fluffy.
  2. Sift in dry ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer or stand mixer on low speed till just mixed (Some white streaks of flour should be visible).
  3. Add dark chocolate chips/chopped and mix with a spatula till properly combined. Cover the bowl and chill for at least 30 minutes and at max 24 hours.
  4. Preheat the oven to 180℃/350℉. Line a cookie sheet with butter/parchment paper.
  5. Scoop around 2 tbsp/ 50 grams of cookie dough. Give it a round shape and place it in the tray around 2 inches apart from each other. Place some dark chocolate chips on top (optional).
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes for soft and fudgy cookies or 15 minutes for crispy cookies.
  7. Let them cool down in the pan itself before storing or serving.

Notes

Notes
  • Use a scale to measure flour. If not using a scale, do not directly scoop from the container rather use a spoon to fill the measurement cup.
  • If not using an electric mixer, start with creaming butter and sugar with a whisk. Add all wet ingredients one by one to ensure proper mixing. Add dry ingredients in batches for ease of mixing.
  • Butter and eggs should be at room temperature to ensure proper mixing.
  • When cookies are done baking they would lose their gloss and appear more matte.
