Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes freezing butter slightly makes it easier to cut into cubes
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup dark cocoa powder
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp coarse salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups peanut butter chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter and sugar. Beat together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Blend in the eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Mix in the cocoa powder until well blended.
- Add the flour, salt and baking powder to the bowl and mix on low speed just until incorporated. Fold in the peanut butter chips with a spatula.
- Transfer the dough to a work surface and knead briefly by hand to be sure the ingredients are well combined. This dough is VERY thick. I kneaded mine in the bowl, and that worked out just fine.
- Divide the dough into 4 ounce portions (or divide into 12 equal pieces). Roll each portion of dough into a ball and flatten just slightly into a disc. Place on the prepared baking sheets, a few inches apart.
- Bake 16-20 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- These cookies are LARGE! They are closer to the size of a hamburger patty than your typical cookie!
