I have made these twice in one week and plan on making them again soon, they are amazing!...a chocolate cookie packed with chocolate and peanut butter chips, the texture is perfect and when left out until the next day (if have any left that is!) they crisp up a bit! You can make a double recipe and freeze the dough if desired.

DOUBLE-CHOCOLATE BUTTER COOKIES

Categories     dessert

Time 2h55m

Yield about 25 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 egg, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup white chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Beat the butter in a large bowl with a hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar, granulated sugar and salt and continue to beat on medium speed until pale and creamy, 2 minutes. Add the cocoa powder, vanilla and egg; mix on low to incorporate. Add the flour, beating on low speed until just incorporated (a few streaks is fine). Switch to a rubber spatula and fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Turn out the dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap, form into a disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Generously dust the dough and work surface with flour. Roll out the dough to a 1/3-inch thickness; if the dough cracks around the edges, simply press it back together. Use cookie cutters to cut out the desired shapes. Place the cookies, 1 inch apart, on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake until just beginning to brown around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through.
  • Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets before removing the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Mmmmm. This is a yummy combination of two of my favorite things, peanut butter and chocolate. This is an easy refrigerator cookie that takes very little time to make. Prep time doesn't include chilling time.

Categories     Dessert

Time 25m

Yield 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 large eggs
1 cup flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
7 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped coarse

Steps:

  • In a bowl, cream together butter, sugar and peanut butter; beat in eggs.
  • Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt; mix well with creamed mixture.
  • On piece of waxed paper, form dough into a 2-inch diameter log.
  • Chill, wrapped in waxed paper and foil, for 2 hours.
  • Cut the log into 1/4-inch slices and bake 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheet in a preheated 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality chocolate chips. Semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips work well in this recipe.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can cream the butter and sugar together with a hand mixer or in a food processor.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These double chocolate butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and soft, chewy texture, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these double chocolate butter cookies a try!
