Giant Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe – A recipe that yields two huge & chewy chocolate cookies jam-packed with creamy peanut butter, peanut butter cups and chocolate chunks. The only thing better than a regular chocolate chip cookie is a GIANT chocolate cookie!
Servings: 2
Ingredients
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons chocolate chunks
2 tablespoons mini peanut butter cups
sprinkles, optional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, cream together butter, granulated and brown sugar. Add egg and vanilla and stir until fully incorporated. Next, mix in peanut butter and stir well.
Add salt, baking soda, and cocoa powder and keep stirring until mostly incorporated. Add flour and combine until a smooth dough forms. Dough should be slightly sticky.
Fold in chocolate chips and chunks as well as mini peanut butter cups.
Divide dough in half and form into cookie shapes – flattening the tops lightly with your hands. Add sprinkles, if desired, and place in the oven. Bake for 15-17 minutes or until cookies are done. Remove from the oven and let rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Enjoy cookies warm or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Cookies will keep up to 5 days stored in an airtight container or up to 3 months in the freezer.
I started out mixing the dough with a fork and switched to a rubber spatula once I started adding the dry ingredients.
