Equipment
- mixing bowl
- hand mixer
- wooden spoon
- measuring cups
- measuring spoons
- baking sheet
- parchment paper
- sturdy spoon
- wire rack
Ingredients
Cookie Dough
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat with a hand mixer or a wooden spoon until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the egg, baking soda, and salt to the peanut butter mixture. Mix again until a uniform, slightly sticky cookie dough forms.
- Use a sturdy spoon to fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop the dough by rounded tablespoons and roll into 1-inch balls. Place the balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Use a fork to gently press down on each ball in a crisscross pattern to about a 1/2-inch thickness.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are set and lightly golden. The centers will still look soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This allows them to firm up.
