Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter (for stuffing)

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowls
  • Hand mixer or stand mixer
  • Spatula
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper or silicone baking mats

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each, then incorporate the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually combine with the wet ingredients until just mixed.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly dispersed in the dough.
  6. Scoop out about a tablespoon of dough, flatten it, add a teaspoon of peanut butter, and cover it with another tablespoon of dough, sealing the edges tightly.
  7. Place balls of dough on the prepared baking sheet, spaced apart, and bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers look soft.
  8. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
