Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (about 128g) creamy peanut butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free version)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Sugars

  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (55g) packed brown sugar

Add-ins

  • 3/4 cup (130g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prep the Dough: Cream the softened butter and peanut butter together in a large mixing bowl until smooth and fluffy. Add both granulated sugar and brown sugar, beating until the mixture is light and airy. Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well to combine all wet ingredients evenly.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until the dough comes together without overmixing to ensure tender cookie bites.
  3. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed for delicious pockets of melted chocolate in every bite.
  4. Shape and Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, form dough balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are golden while centers remain soft.
  5. Cool and Enjoy: Let the cookie bites cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This resting time helps them set perfectly, balancing chewiness with softness.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter and peanut butter for smoother dough and better mixing.
  • Do not overbake; remove cookies when edges are golden but centers appear slightly underdone to keep softness.
  • Chill dough for 30 minutes if possible to reduce spreading during baking.
  • Choose quality creamy peanut butter to enhance flavor; natural or slightly sweetened options work well.
  • Use an even-sized scoop to ensure consistent baking and uniform presentation.
