Description
A delightful treat that combines the rich, fudgy texture of brownie with creamy peanut butter filling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
- Mix together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until you achieve a smooth consistency.
- Introduce the eggs and vanilla extract to your mixture, blending everything together well.
- Gradually whisk in the cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder for added lift and flavor.
- Slowly incorporate the all-purpose flour until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring an even distribution throughout the dough.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto your prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
- Place a small dollop of peanut butter in the center of each dough ball, then top with another spoonful of dough. Seal the edges to encase the peanut butter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges set but the middle remains slightly soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
