baci's baking - Chocolate Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie Duo

Picky Palate is one of my favorite cooking blogs to follow! I've gotten so many great recipes from Jenny's posts, including this Chocolate Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie Duo. . . they were SUCH a hit the first time I made them that I hurried up and made them again shortly after!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie Duo

(Tweaked Minorly from the Picky Palate Recipe)

Peanut Butter Cookie
2 c. creamy peanut butter
2 c. granulated sugar
2 eggs

1. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl until well combined. Set aside.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie
2 sticks softened butter (1 cup)
1 c. granulated sugar
3/4 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
1 t. vanilla
1 3/4 c. flour
1 1/4 c. cocoa powder
2 t. baking soda
1/4 t. salt
1 c. chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cream the butter and sugars until well combined.
3. Slowly beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
4. Place flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl; mix with fork or salt. Add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined.
5. Take a tablespoon of peanut butter cookie dough and a tablespoon of chocolate chocolate chip cookie dough and gently press together forming a "not so perfect" ball. Don't press and roll too much, just stick them together and place onto a silpat or parchment paper lined baking sheet.
6. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until cookies are cooked through to your liking.
7. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
