    Peanut butter and chocolate come together to create the perfect soft Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies! cookingwithcurls.com

    Mint and chocolate...red wine and chocolate...peanut butter and chocolate. Some combinations are a match made in heaven, like these Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies! They are soft, thick, and the perfect fix when those late afternoon cravings hit. I have been dreaming about creating some over-the-top cookies loaded with peanut butter and chocolate for a couple of weeks now.....

    I thought about making peanut butter cookies and dipping them in chocolate....and maybe chopped peanuts. Or maybe just dip the bottoms in chocolate and drizzle more on top!! I finally decided to keep things simple {like I usually do} and play around with my favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe and see what happens. The result was amazing!!

    How to make Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies:

    Pour yourself a big glass of milk {or water}, sit back and enjoy these little morsels of joy! 🙂

    Notes:

    • I used a #30 cookie scoop {similar to this one}, so the cooking time is based on this size. Adjust your time {up or down} accordingly.
    • I used Skippy All-Natural Creamy Peanut Butter and Ghirardelli Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips for reference.
    • I store my baked cookies in Ziploc Freezer Bags to keep them soft. 😉
