Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk

Dry and Leavening Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  1. Cream softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy, creating a smooth mixture.
  2. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition, then blend in vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
  3. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
  4. Gradually fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined to prevent overmixing.
  5. Gently fold chocolate and peanut butter chips into the cookie dough, distributing them evenly throughout.
  6. Add milk to slightly adjust dough consistency, making it easier to handle and shape.
  7. Chill the dough for 30 minutes in the refrigerator to help prevent spreading during baking.
  8. Preheat oven to 375°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  9. Scoop rounded tablespoons of chilled dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden brown and centers appear slightly soft.
  11. Remove from oven and let cookies rest on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and soft texture.

Notes

  • Adjust milk quantity carefully to prevent overly sticky or dry dough, ensuring perfect cookie consistency.
  • Chill dough longer for more intense flavor development and easier handling during shaping.
  • Use room temperature eggs and butter for smoother, more uniform mixing and better cookie texture.
  • Experiment with different chip combinations like dark chocolate, white chocolate, or butterscotch for unique flavor variations.
