Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Cookies



Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter
10 ounces (1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons) granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 ounces (1/2 cup) dark cocoa powder
10 ounces (2 1/4 cups) all-purpose flour
Pinch of Kosher salt
1 tsp teaspoon baking powder
1 2/3 cups (12 ounce bag) peanut butter chips
1 1/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle, cream together butter and sugar until well-blended. Add eggs and beat until well-incorporated, then beat in cocoa powder. Be careful not to over mix as that will add air and cause the cookie to fall while baking. Mix in flour, salt and baking powder until just combined. Gently fold in peanut butter chips and chocolate chips. Divide into 12 equal portions (about 4 oz) and place each on sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake in oven 16 minutes, taking care not to over bake. Let cool on rack and store in airtight container.
