Last weekend, I had a big time sweet tooth for some fresh warm chocolate chip cookies. As I was preparing my cookie dough, I thought….hmmm, I want to add some peanut butter swirls throughout, then remembered how yummy peanut butter truffles are and there you have my newest cookie obsession
Take a peek below and I’ll show you how you can make your very own batch.
So, I started by mixing my peanut butter truffle mix. Peanut butter mixed with powdered sugar, pressed into the above 8×8 inch baking dish then frozen and placed on a cutting board as pictured above
Once nice and frozen, slice and cut into chunks as you see here. They will not be perfect chunks and it surely does not matter. You can even tear it all apart with your fingers.
Prepare your chocolate chip cookie dough first, then sprinkle your peanut butter truffle chunks in and only mix 2 or 3 turns of the mixer. You want nice peanut butter swirls and chunks throughout
Here’s your gorgeous cookie dough with those fabulous peanut butter truffle swirls throughout. Kinda hard to see, but trust me, they are there!
Try to keep your fingers out of this…..haha, I failed miserably
Scoop the dough onto your favorite cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes…depending on how you like your cookies.
Here you have them. Staring at you, begging to be eaten
With some milk of course. Enjoy!
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 cups chocolate chips
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Place peanut butter and powdered sugar into a large bowl and mix to combine. I used my hands for a quicker mix. Press into an 8×8 inch baking pan that has been lined with foil, sprayed with cooking spray. Place in freezer for at least 30 minutes.
3. Place butter and sugars into the bowl of a stand or electric mixer, mix to combine. Add eggs and vanilla, mix to combine.
4. Place flour, salt and baking soda into a large bowl, mix to combine. Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips, just mixing until combined.
5. Remove peanut butter truffle pan from freezer and cut into cubes. They will not be perfect, I even tore some apart with my hands. Just as long as they are in chunks, you are fine. Once cut up, I put back in freezer for about 10 minutes.
6. Add peanut butter truffle chunks to your cookie dough, mix on low for just a couple turns of the mixer, the idea is you want chunks and swirls throughout the dough so you bite into nice bits of peanut butter truffle
7. Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart and bake for 10-13 minutes, until cooked to your preference. Let cool for 10 minutes on baking sheet then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
Makes 3-4 dozen cookies

What a perfect idea to use a pizza cutter! Can’t believe I didn’t think of that at the time, lol! Thanks for sharing and glad you enjoyed the recipe
These look really good! As an Aussie, we don’t have ‘sticks’ of butter – how many grams is a stick? Thanks!
All my favorite cookie flavors in a whole new way…love it!
oh my goodness. just made these, and let me say… they are the best cookies i’ve ever had!! these are to die for and i’ll be making these for my boyfriend and his friends for their hockey tournament next weekend. mine did not come out this flat though, is there any tips for having them come out flatter as compared to i guess puffy?
I’ve never used a full tablespoon of vanilla in chocolate chip cookies – does it taste really strong?
I made these and nope, the vanilla wasn’t strong, wow those are good cookies! thanks for the recipe!
I am not normally a peanut butter person but wow these look amazing. Thanks for sharing. Bookmarked this one. Kim
Oh my gosh! I made these cookies last night & finally just tried them this morning. WOW! These are the best cookies I have ever made. I LOVE soft cookies, not crunchy at all, and these were perfect! They had the perfect balance of chocolate, peanut butter, and cookie! They were amazing! Great job!! Thank youuu!!
I just made these and my family and friends loved them! Even the non-peanut butter lovers were converted. I also made your s’mores stuffed brownies earlier this summer and they were also a huge hit. Thanks for all the delicious recipes!
I just made them!!! fantastic and I couldnt stop eating the batter so good!! only problem i had was my pb swirls were too chunky so they are like pb puddles in some spots other wise greatttt!!!!!
