-
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg until beaten. Mix in the peanut butter, then the brown sugar, baking soda, and cocoa powder.
-
Mix everything together very well, then mix in the vanilla extract. Finally, fold in the peanut butter chips until combined.
-
Scoop the dough, about 1.5 tablespoons each, onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake two batches, with about 6 to 7 cookies on each baking sheet for each batch.
-
Gently press down on the dough mounds with the back of a spoon. If you find the cookie dough balls are a little oily from the peanut butter, blot each with a paper towel.
-
Bake for 9 to 10 minutes. The cookies will look very soft, but that’s okay, For crispier cookies, bake up to 11 to 12 minutes.
-
Allow the cookies to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. If desired, press a couple more peanut butter chips into the tops of each cookie immediately after coming out of the oven.
Recipe Notes
Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week. Baked cookies freeze well – up to three months. Unbaked cookie dough balls freeze well – up to three months. Bake frozen cookie dough balls for an extra minute, no need to thaw.
