Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and peanut butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Beat in the egg and vanilla until just combined.
  3. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt, then fold in the oats and chocolate chips.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoonfuls of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden.
  5. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

If you like a thicker cookie, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping. For the best texture, avoid overmixing once you add the flour and oats.
