Peanut butter chocolate chips cookies: All time favorite.

 I always turn to cookies for comfort, both while making them and eating them.

 I remember the first time I made a cookie, I didn't make it from scratch, it came from the bag of ready-mix Betty Crocker, it's easy but while baking I read the package and started thinking why do I have to buy something like this, -*-. The ingredients are simple and it's so easy to make, you don't need any skill or special equipment, just your heart ^^. So after that, I started baking from scratch instead! This time I make peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, both of my favorite flavors in one piece of cookie.  I choose to bake it twice to make it drier but don't try to bake it longer so you don't have to bake it again. You need to make the cookie puff and fall, if you bake it longer for the first bake, you will get a little cake instead. But if you want a soft-baked cookie, just stop after the first bake, the cookie will be soft and delicious too.
I use salted butter for this recipe because salt and peanut butter are great companions ^^.

Makes 18

 
100 g .......................... Salted butter
90 g ............................. Granulated sugar
85 g ............................. Brown sugar
1 .................................. Egg
1 tsp ............................. Vanilla extract
3/4 tsp ....................... Baking soda
200 g ............................ All propose flour
150 g ............................. Chunky peanut butter
90 g ............................... Chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 170°C.
Line the baking pan with baking paper or a baking mat.





 Beat the butter until softened, add both of the sugar, and beat until combined.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until combined.
Add the peanut butter and beat until combined.
Sift the flour together with baking soda into the bowl and pour the chocolate chips into the bowl, fold to combine.
Use a 5.5cm scoop, scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, and bake for 17-18 minutes, the cookie will puff up and fall while cooling, let them cool on the baking sheet.
Reduce the oven temperature to 150°C.
When the cookies cool, dry them again in the oven for 10 minutes.

  5. Yes, it will make the cookie dry but if you want it to be on a soft side, you don't need to do it. ^^
