Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Cream the Butters: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and creamy peanut butter. Beat together until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Sugars: Gradually incorporate brown sugar and granulated sugar into the mixture, mixing until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture. Beat until fully incorporated.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Scoop the Dough: Portion out the dough and roll it into balls. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced 2 inches apart.
  7. Chill the Dough: Cover the baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  9. Flatten the Dough: Flatten each dough ball with a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
  10. Bake the Cookies: Bake in the oven for 8-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  11. Cool the Cookies: Let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
