Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bars
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter softened
- ⅔ cup light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a mixing bowl beat butter and sugars until creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in eggs and vanilla extract and beat until blended. Add in flour and baking soda.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Spread half of the dough (using fingertips) in the bottom of the baking dish. Dollop the peanut butter onto the dough. I used a 1 Tbsp cookie scoop to do this. Do not spread the peanut butter, drop by teaspoon or tablespoon instead.
- Top with remaining cookie dough (it’s okay if some of the peanut butter shows).
- Bake in preheated oven for 22-24 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely in pan.
- Cut into bars and enjoy.
