Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yield: 36 Cookies (2-3 dozen depending on size)

Prep Time: 15

Cook Time: 12

Total Time: 27

Ingredients

1 cup (227 g) butter, softened to room temperature (I use salted butter)
1 cup (255 g) creamy peanut butter
1 cup (212 g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1 cup (212 g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 large eggs
2 cups (284 g) all-purpose flour
1 cup (100 g) quick oats (using old-fashioned rolled oats will give a different texture)
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups (340 g) chocolate chips (milk, semisweet, bittersweet)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl with an electric handheld mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs and mix until the batter is light in color, 2-3 minutes. Stir in the flour, oatmeal, baking soda and salt. When it is mostly combined but there are still a few dry spots, add the chocolate chips and mix until well combined.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet (with parchment, silpat or coated with cooking spray), spacing the cookies 1-2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until very lightly browned and still soft in the center. Remove the cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
