Ingredients
Scale
1 Cup Butter
1 Cup Creamy Peanut Butter
2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Brown Sugar
2 Large Eggs
3 Cups AP Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1 Teaspoon Salt
1 Bag Dark Chocolate Chips/Chunks (You can ALWAYS ADD MORE!)
Flaked Sea Salt for topping
Instructions
In a mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together butter and peanut butter.
Add Sugars and mix until light and fluffy.
Add Vanilla Extract, and Eggs and mix until combined.
Add in dry ingredients and mix until combined thoroughly.
Pour in Dark Chocolate Chips/Chunks.
Refrigerate dough for a few hours or over night (If you do not refrigerate you will have less puffy cookies-your choice).
Preheat oven to 325*.
Scoop with a small ice cream scoop or spoon and place on cookie sheet lined with either a silicone baking liner or parchment paper. I made generous sized scoops and placed them approximately 15 per baking sheet.
Bake for 12-14 minutes or until just set.
Sprinkle with sea salt (I pressed my cookies down just a bit before sprinkling).
Leave on cookie sheet for 1-2 additional minutes.
Cool completely on a wire rack or parchment paper lined surface.
