Ingredients
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (4 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
- 2/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup peanuts
- Coarse salt for sprinkling
Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- 2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
- 3. Beat together the butter, peanut butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping the bowl as needed. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract. Scrape the bowl. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate chips and peanuts.
- 4. Drop by two heaping tablespoonfuls of dough, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle a small pinch of coarse salt on top of each cookie. Bake for about 12 minutes, or until the outside of the cookies are set but the middles are still a little soft. Cool cookies on the baking sheets. Store in an airtight container.
