Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Cookies

Chocolate peanut butter chip cookies make a great dessert or snack anytime. I often make these chocolate peanut butter cookies for bake sales. They are just as popular as my chocolate chip cookies.

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 cups peanut butter chips

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.

With an electric mixer, cream softened butter and sugars together in a large bowl.

Beat in eggs and vanilla until well-incorporated.

Gradually, add flour mixture in thirds, beating after each addition. Do not overmix or the cookies will be tough.

Stir in peanut butter chips.

Drop by teaspoonsful onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 8-10 minutes.
