You know when you see something at the grocery store and you don't think twice, you just buy it. Well, when I saw these peanut butter-filled chocolate chips, that was exactly the case. (Note the caramel-filled chocolate chips behind them.)
What do they taste like? Tiny peanut butter cups. In other words, they're dangerous. Baked into soft, puffy peanut butter cookies, they are irresistible.
I'm thinking you need to go pick up a bag right now. Yes, you in your yoga pants. Go. You, in your pjs. Well, change out of your pjs, then go.
Soft Peanut Butter Cookies with Peanut Butter-Filled Chocolate Chips
{makes 24-ish...honestly, we ate them so quickly, I forgot how many}1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 & 1/4 cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup butter, cut into chunks
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 TBSP corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 & 3/4 cups peanut butter (I use Jif Natural)
1 (9-oz) package Nestle Delightfulls peanut butter-filled chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 325.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking soda, salt. Set aside.
In a bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter, both sugars, and corn syrup for a few minutes until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs and vanilla; mix until well combined. Beat in the peanut butter.
Add the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to dollop the dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until the cookies are done. Remove to wire cooling racks to cool completely.
What are you waiting for? Are you heading to the grocery store to get those chips?!?
