Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 sticks softened butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat liner.
  • Place peanut butter into the freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • In a stand or electric mixer, beat butter and sugars until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until well combined.
  •  Place flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Add to wet ingredients along with cocoa powder, and chocolate chunks, slowly mixing until just combined.
  • Drop dollops of frozen peanut butter into dough and turn mixer on for just a few turns of the mixer to get swirls of peanut butter through the dough. With a medium cookie scoop, scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart from each other.
  • Bake for 14 to 16 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve with milk.
