Barefoot Contessa's Chocolate Peanut Butter Globs recipe: Chunky walnuts and pecans mixed in with chocolate and baked to perfection.
Share:
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick)
- 12 oz. bittersweet chocolate chips divided
- 2 oz. unsweetened chocolate
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso or coffee powder (optional)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup whole walnuts NOT chopped
- 1 cup whole pecan halves NOT chopped
- 2/3 cup peanut butter chips
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 325 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the butter, 6 oz. of chocolate chips, and the unsweetened chocolate in a glass bowl. Place the bowl over simmering water and stirring occasionally, melt the chocolates and butter. Once melted, let it cool in room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
- Combine the remaining 6 oz. chocolate chips, walnut halves, pecan halves, peanut butter chips and 1 tablespoon flour in a bowl. Set aside.
- Beat the eggs, espresso powder, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until they are combined. Scrape the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula halfway through to ensure that they mix thoroughly.
- Increase the speed to medium high and add the sugar. Beat it for 2 minutes.
- Decrease the speed to low and add the chocolate mixture and mix it until combined. Set it aside.
- Whisk the remaining 1/3 cup flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
- Fold it in to the chocolate batter. Do not overmix.
- Lastly, fold the mixed nuts and chocolate chip mixture until they are all coated with the chocolate batter mixture.
- Using 2 spoons, drop rounded amounts of batter 1 inch apart from each other on to the prepared baking pans. Keep in mind that they almost double in their size. Mine were close 2 inches in diameter. I ended up with 12 globs.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Cool it on a rack.
