Ingredients

Scale

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
In a separate bowl, mix peanut butter until smooth. Drop tablespoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between them.
Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and drizzle over each cookie mound. Swirl gently with a knife or toothpick.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until cookies look set but slightly soft in the center. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for five minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
