AWARD WINNING CHOCOLATE CHIP PEANUT BUTTER CHIP COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Christmas

Yield 6 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 cups butter, softened
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 (3.4 oz) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
2 cups peanut butter chips
(Could do 4 cups chocolate chips and add 2 cups walnuts)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Sift together the flour and baking soda, set aside. 2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Beat in the instant pudding mix until blended. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Blend in the flour mixture. Finally, stir in all chips (and nuts, if you so choose). 3. Drop cookies by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. 4. Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven. Edges should be golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter for a smooth and rich cookie.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges but still soft in the center. This will give you a chewy cookie.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These award-winning peanut butter cookies are a classic for a reason. They are easy to make, delicious, and loved by people of all ages. Whether you are a peanut butter lover or just looking for a classic cookie recipe, these cookies are sure to please.
