Chocolate and peanut butter. Epic. Although I have a chocolate cookie with peanut butter chips and peanut butter M&M's™ in it, this one accentuates the distinctive flavors of the peanut butter and chocolate. Ingredients:
peanut butter dough |
2 1/2 c flour |
1 tsp baking soda |
1 tsp salt |
1/2 lb butter, at room temperature |
3/4 c packed brown sugar |
1/4 c granulated sugar |
1 pkg. (3.4 oz) jello™ vanilla flavored instant pudding |
2 ( large) eggs |
1 tsp pure vanilla extract |
3/4 c peanut butter |
1 c peanut butter or semi-sweet chocolate chips |
chocolate dough |
2 1/2 c flour |
1 tsp baking soda |
1 tsp salt |
1/2 lb butter, at room temperature |
3/4 c packed brown sugar |
1/4 c granulated sugar |
1 pkg. (3.4 oz) jello™ chocolate flavored instant pudding |
2 ( large) eggs |
1 tsp pure vanilla extract |
1 c peanut butter or semi-sweet chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Prepare peanut butter dough and chocolate dough separately.
3. Sift together first 3 ingredients into a large bowl. Set aside.
4. In a large mixer bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add instant pudding, mixing well. Add eggs and extract, mixing until well blended. For the peanut butter dough, add peanut butter now. Scrape down sides of bowl as necessary. Slowly add flour, blending well.
5. Remove dough and set aside. Prepare second flavor dough following directions as stated above.
6. Place both doughs side by side in a large bowl, pressing them together gently. Do not blend them together too much.
7. Using a standard ice cream scoop (2 oz), or rounded spoonful, scoop across the two flavors of dough, to get equal portions of peanut butter and chocolate in each scoop. Drop dough on to an un-greased cookie sheet. Press dough together as needed when scooping.
8. For 2 oz cookie, bake at 350 degrees for 16-18 minutes. For rounded tablespoon-sized cookies, bake 12-14 minutes. After one minute, transfer from pan to wire rack to cool.
