Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. 1/4 cups flour, 3/4 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup butter softened
2. cup peanut butter (chunky or smooth), 3/4 cup sugar plus more for rolling, 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3. egg
4. tablespoon milk
5. teaspoon vanilla
6. cup mini chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl and set aside. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and peanut butter together, then add both the sugars and mix until creamy. Reduce the speed to low and add the egg, milk and vanilla and mix until combined. Slowly add in the dry ingredients, followed by the chocolate chips. Roll dough into 2-teaspoon balls, then roll in the extra sugar before placing on a prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until edges are slightly browning. Remove to a cooling rack.

Make-Ahead Tips

For many dessert recipes, the easiest make-ahead move is to prepare the dough or batter in advance, cover it well, and chill it until you are ready to bake. Chilling can also improve texture and help flavor develop, especially when the recipe includes butter, brown sugar, or spices.

Storage Notes

Once fully cool, transfer the finished bake to an airtight container so it holds its texture and flavor longer. Soft cookies and bars usually keep best at room temperature for a few days, while longer storage is often easiest in the freezer with layers separated so nothing sticks together.
