Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Cookies

Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Cookies

Serves 20 | Prep Time: 15 Min | Cook Time: 12 Min

Ingredients:

1 cup (250 g) chunky peanut butter
1/2 cup (90 g) packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon (5 mL) baking soda
1 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks

Method:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.

In a stand mixer, mix the peanut butter, sugars, egg and baking soda on medium speed until combined. Fold in the chocolate with a spatula.

Create 1-inch balls and place on the baking sheet at least 2 inches apart.

Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to rest on the baking sheet for approximately 5 minutes, before transferring to a rack to cool completely.

Cook’s Note:

Because the dough has so much chocolate, try pressing the dough together to form the balls rather than rolling. It works better.
