Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
This cookie recipe omits flour, relying on the peanut butter to provide structure along with brown sugar, egg, and baking soda. The batter is mixed smoothly before folding in dark or milk chocolate chips. Dough portions are scooped and slightly flattened to ensure even baking and the signature cookie shape.
Baked at 350°F, these cookies puff gently and develop lightly golden edges while remaining soft inside. Letting the cookies cool on the baking sheet before transferring ensures they set without breaking apart. The result is a chewy, tender cookie with a pronounced peanut butter and chocolate chip combination.
They are best enjoyed warm right after baking when the chocolate is melty and the texture is soft.
Ingredients
- 1 egg large
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 cup peanut butter used Jiff brand
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips or use milk chocolate
Instructions
- Set the oven to 350F
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk the egg, brown sugar and baking soda together in a bowl. Make sure to break up any lumps in the sugar so that the mixture is smooth. Stir in the peanut butter and mix until well combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop onto the baking sheet with a 1 1/2 inch baking scoop (or use a tablespoon), and space the cookies 2 inches apart.
- Flatten the cookies slightly, and bake for about 10 minutes until puffed and just beginning to turn golden around the edge. Don't over bake, they will still be soft, but will firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then carefully transfer to a rack.
Notes
- These cookies are especially enjoyable when eaten warm, shortly after baking.
