Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies


One of my college roommates, Angie, used to always make this type of cookie. They were amazing! Once, I tried to replicate them by using a peanut butter cookie recipe that I already had and just added chocolate chips and they turned out terrible. I gave up on making them for about 6 years, when just tonight I saw this recipe on the bag of Target brand chocolate chips and decided to take the risk of making them again. This must have been the recipe that Angie used to use because it was great. I'll have to call her tomorrow to thank her for those cookies that she used to make.

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups chocolate chips
granulated sugar

Heat oven to 375°
Beat butter, peanut butter, sugars, and vanilla on medium speed until creamy. Beat in egg until light and fluffy. Mix in flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt on low speed until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Roll dough into balls and roll in sugar. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake 9-12 minutes.
