Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup peanut butter creamy or crunchy
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for rolling

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Hand Mixer
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will keep your cookies from sticking.
  2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix until everything is well blended.
  3. Step 3: Fold in the chocolate chips gently until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  4. Step 4: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Don't worry about making them perfect; a little rustic charm is always welcome!
  5. Step 5: Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Step 6: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. Step 7: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
  8. Step 8: While still warm, roll each cookie in powdered sugar until fully coated.
  9. Step 9: Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

To keep your cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They’ll stay delicious for about a week. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.
