PB & C Cookie Factory

The man of the house made a request for peanut butter cookies with chocolate.  I, being the sugar fiend that I am, will appease such a request.  

So, I made peanut butter chocolate chunk cookies.  I feel like chunks needed to be used here because these cookies are sort of the "bricks and mortar" of my sweet tooth.  

Our weaponry:



1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature 
1 cup peanut butter, smooth or chunky whatever 
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups flour
1 (12 oz) bag chocolate chunks, or chips whatever

Please, please, please, please use unsalted butter here because we are not adding any salt and the peanut butter is generally salty enough. 

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees

Begin creaming the butter and peanut butter until fluffy



Add in the sugars and beat until fluffy



Add in the vanilla and eggs(one at a time)



Mix well

Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add in half of the flour along with the baking soda


One half


Other half

Scrape down the sides of the bowl and fold in the chocolate chunks



Using a cookie scoop/ice cream scoop whatever you call it, or 2 spoons, drop by spoon(or scoop)fuls onto lined baking sheets


Look at that, all my soldiers in formation

Bake at 325 for 15-20min, until puffy and golden


Cheers
