Peanut Butter Chunky Chocolate Cookies.

I used a big scoop for these cookies. ?? inches wide that yields 12-13 cookies from the dough. But feel free to use a smaller scoop for more cookies.

Look at these great big balls of cookie dough though.

Before baking sprinkle a little sea salt on top to make them taste extra special.

Oh my … so much melty chocolate.

Speaking of melty. If you can’t wait for these to cool like a certain sweets-loving person I know, then be prepared to enjoy puddles of warm chocolate with a tall glass of cold milk.

Peanut Butter Chunky Chocolate Cookies

2 1/4 cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 tsp salt

1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature

1/2 cup peanut butter

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla

12-18 oz semisweet chocolate baking wafers (I used these.)

sea salt

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit.
• Whisk flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Using a mixer, cream butter, peanut butter and both sugars together until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs one at a time, mixing until incorporated. Add vanilla.
• Add flour mixture and slowly mix until combined. Stir in chocolate wafers.
• Scoop dough using a large 2-1/2 inch scoop (yields 12-13 cookies) a few inches apart onto a parchment lined baking sheet and sprinkle the tops lightly with sea salt. Bake 14-16 minutes and let cool.
  Note: For more cookies, use a smaller scoop and bake for a little less time.

Enjoy!!!
