Soft and chewy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are simple to make and a family favorite. A great addition to a holiday cookie tray or s'mores board.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the peanut butter and butter on medium speed until thoroughly combined. Slowly add the sugar to the bowl and continue beating until light and creamy.
Turn the mixer to low and add the egg to the bowl. Beat to combine. Add the vanilla and continue mixing until combined scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour to the the bowl and beat to combine. Continue mixing the dough for an additional 2-3 minutes. Fold in the chocolate chips
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop 2 tablespoon scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet approximately 2-3 inches apart.
Bake the cookies for approximately 13-15 minutes, turning the baking sheet halfway through cooking time. (For softer cookies baking for 13 minutes, crispier bake for 15). Repeat steps 6 and 7 with any remaining dough until all the cookies have been baked.
