Instructions
Preheat oven to 375
In your mixing bowl, add your soft butter, granulated and brown sugar. Cream until light and fluffy. This does happen, takes about 3-5 min depending on what type of mixer you are using.
Break your eggs into a separate bowl, this helps ensure you don't get any shells in your cookies. And every once in a blue moon an egg doesn't look so good. (You don't want to ruin all your ingredients) Mix it up a little with a fork to break up the yolk. Then add it into your mixing bowl and mix until the egg is all incorporated in the butter and sugar. Add in your peanut butter and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, add your flour, baking powder and baking soda.
Now add in your vanilla to the butter and sugar mixture. You only have to mix it in a little bit.
Using a 1 cup mixing cup, scoop your flour mixture into the cookie mixture by adding flour then mixing until incorporated. Then adding the flour and mixing. Do this until all the flour is gone and mixed in completely.
Add in the chocolate chips. And mix just until they are combined.
Roll your cookies and place on baking sheet. We roll ours about 2 - 2.5 inches. We like BIG cookies!After all your cookies are rolled. Take the cookie dough and roll them in granulated sugar. We put about 1/2 cup of sugar in a ziplock bag and put the cookies one by one in the bag and shake it. Place cookie back on cookie sheet.Once all cookies are rolled in sugar, take a fork and flatten the cookie roll down gently to make for impressions and take away some height of the cookie.
Bake for 10 min. Or just until golden. They do not need to be very golden for a delicious light and chewy cookie.
