One Bowl Chocolate Peanut Cookie Recipe

Chocolate Peanut Cookie

It seems that the starter kit for living the quarantine life is – baking banana bread, baking bread and trying to become TikTok famous. After seeing these chocolate peanut butter cookies on TikTok countless times, I decided to attempt to make them. I’ve made a few adjustments to elevate them a little, but these cookies are so easy to make. Best part is, it’s a one bowl chocolate peanut cookie recipe, so clean up is a breeze!

I didn’t have chocolate chips on hand (as per the original recipe), so I chopped up my block of Callebaut chocolate. I highly recommend using good quality chocolate for this recipe because there are so few ingredients – each ingredient shines through.

All the ingredients can be found easily in your pantry (for the most part). I used crunch peanut butter and I found that the peanuts added a really good texture to the cookie.

Using a cookie scoop ensures that each cookie is perfectly shaped and portioned. When they are hot out of the oven, gently press a few chocolate chunks onto the cookie. Let the cookie set in the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy these cookies with a nice cold glass of milk. I personally tried a couple when they were still warm and they were absolutely heavenly. The pools of dark chocolate are so decadent and the peanut pieces from the crunchy peanut butter add a really nice nutty textural contrast to a relatively soft cookie.
