PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP SHORTBREAD COOKIES



PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP SHORTBREAD COOKIES image

Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 stick, (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature (important!)
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup confectioner's sugar
scant 1/2 tsp sea salt
3/4 cup milk chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Set oven to 325F Cream the butter and the peanut butter together in a stand mixer, with a hand mixer, or a wooden spoon. Beat in the vanilla. Whisk the dry ingredients together and add to the butter mixture. Mix until the dough comes together. Stir in the chips, and turn the dough out onto a piece of waxed paper. Gently pull the dough together and form it into a log. If it is still crumbly, work it with your hands until it holds together smoothly. Roll it up in the paper, smoothing the shape as you go. Twist the ends securely and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours. Slice the log into slices with a sharp knife. Not too thick, not too thin, about 1/3 inch. If a slice crumbles a bit, just smoosh the dough back together. These don't have to be perfect disks. Bake on a parchment or silpat lined baking sheet at 325 for about 12-14 minutes. The cookies will not be browned, and they may look undone, but don't over bake. One of the joys of shortbread cookies is that they fall apart and melt in your mouth. Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.

PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP CREAM CHEESE COOKIES



PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP CREAM CHEESE COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies     Cheese     Dessert     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 can seamless crescent rolls (or pinch together seams on a regular can, or make your own)
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
¾ C mixed peanut butter and chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Beat sugar, cream cheese and vanilla together until smooth and creamy. Unroll the crescent roll sheet onto lightly floured surface. . Stretch the dough out, I use a rolling pin to do this, then trim the edges to give it a good rectangular shape. A pizza cutter is great for trimming edges of dough. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the top of the crescent sheet, leaving a gap at the edge about 1/2 inch. Sprinkle your chips on top of cream cheese - press them in lightly to aid in rolling. Roll the crescent sheet up tightly and wrap in cling wrap. Place in freezer for at least 2 hours it won't get really solid as the cream cheese mix won't freeze hard. When chilled preheat oven to 350°. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper (prevents sticking and helps in cleanup). Slice the crescent roll into 1/4" slices. They won't keep the precise round shape, but that is fine! Bake on prepared cookie sheet for 12 -14 minutes until crescent roll appears golden brown. Cool on the parchment paper or wire rack.

THICK AND SOFT CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (GLUTEN-FREE



THICK AND SOFT CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (GLUTEN-FREE image

Categories     Cookies     Chocolate

Yield 13 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup + 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (i.e. one heaping cup - I prefer creamy honey roasted; plain or crunchy may be used; do not use natural or homemade peanut butter, it's too runny)
1 cup light brown sugar, packed (dark brown may be substituted)
1 large egg
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder (Dutch-process or Hershey's Special Dark may be substituted)
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • To the mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine peanut butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until well-combined and the sugar is fully incorporated and is mixture is no longer gritty or granular, about 5 minutes. Stop to scrape down the bowl as necessary. Note regarding peanut butter - although natural peanut butter or homemade peanut butter may work, I recommend using storebought peanut butter like Jif, Skippy, Peter Pan or similar so that cookies bake up thicker and spread less. Using natural or homemade peanut butter tends to result in thinner, flatter cookies, that are prone to spreading. Add the cocoa powder (I don't bother to sift), baking soda, and beat to incorporate, 1 to 2 minutes. Dough may be a bit crumbly in pieces, but pieces should all stick together forming a large mound when pinched, squeezed, and pushed together. If your dough seems dry, adding 1 to 2 additional tablespoons of peanut butter will help it combine. Using a 2-inch medium cookie scoop (about 2 heaping tablespoons of dough or 1.80 ounces by weight), form dough mounds or roll dough into balls. Recipe makes 13 cookies; dividing dough into 13 equal portions is another way to do this. Place dough on a large plate and flatten each mound with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern on top. Slightly flattening the mounds before baking ensures they don't stay too domed and puffed while baking because this dough, when properly chilled, doesn't spread much; just don't over-flatten. Cover plate with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 5 days, before baking. Do not bake with warm dough. Preheat oven to 350F, line 2 baking sheets with Silpat Non-Stick Baking Mats, parchment, or spray with cooking spray; set aside. Space dough 2 inches apart (8 to 10 per tray) and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until edges are set and tops are barely set, even if slightly underbaked in the center.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate and peanut butter for the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough, or the cookies will be tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, or the cookies will spread too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set, or they will be dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving, or they will be too soft.

Conclusion:

These chocolate and peanut butter cookies are a classic for a reason. They are easy to make, delicious, and always a hit with everyone who tries them. With their rich chocolate flavor and creamy peanut butter filling, these cookies are sure to be a favorite in your home. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed.
