Ingredients
  

  • 8.5 ounces Bread Flour
  • 8.5 ounces Cake Flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 1.25 teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1.25 cups Unsalted Butter at room temperature
  • 0.5 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 10 ounces Light Brown Sugar
  • 8 ounces Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2.5 cups Chocolate Chips

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Whisk
  • Baking Sheet
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Whisk both flours, the baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a medium bowl; set aside.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and peanut butter together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
  3. Add both sugars and continue beating on medium speed until very light, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Mix in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined, then beat in the vanilla.
  5. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  6. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Press plastic wrap against dough and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  8. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  9. Divide the dough into 2½-ounce balls and place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 2 inches of space between the cookies.
  10. Bake for about 15-17 minutes, or until the edges are set and golden brown.
  11. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes before removing the cookies to the rack to cool completely.
