Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter softened
- 1 ½ cups light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a mixing bowl beat butter and sugars until creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in eggs and vanilla and beat until blended. Add in flour and baking soda.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Spread half of the dough (using fingertips) in the bottom of the baking dish. Dollop the peanut butter onto the dough. I used a 1 Tbsp cookie scoop to do this. Do not spread the peanut butter, drop by teaspoon or tablespoon instead.
- Top with remaining cookie dough (it's okay if some of the peanut butter shows).
- Bake in preheated oven for 24-28 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely in pan.
- Cut into bars and enjoy.
Notes
- Choose a traditional peanut butter, like Jif or Skippy, not a natural version.
- Don't spread the peanut butter, you'll thank me later when you take a bite with a creamy swirl of peanut butter.
- Cool completely before cutting into bars. Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- If using unsalted butter, add 1 teaspoon kosher salt to the batter with the flour.
