Pan-Banging Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies
These pan-banging chocolate chip peanut butter cookies are without a doubt my favorite cookie recipe on this blog! They're made with just 10 ingredients, all of which I bet you already have in your pantry. Though they do require some chill time, the chewy edges, soft & buttery centers, and pools of melted chocolate make it well worth the wait!

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and peanut butter on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.

Add the sugars and continue beating for 2-3 more minutes until light & fluffy.

Once the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and line two baking sheets with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- Step 9
Use a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the cookie dough.
- Step 10
Roll each cookie dough ball in granulated sugar and top with more chopped chocolate.
- Step 11
Place the cookie dough on the prepared baking sheets about 3 inches a part.
- Step 12
Bake the cookies for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven (close the door) and drop the baking sheet onto a towel-covered countertop about 5-6 times.
- Step 13
Place the cookies back in the oven for an additional 3-4 minutes.
- Step 14
Allow cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet and enjoy!
