I absolutely LOVE peanut butter! So when I came across this recipe on Averie Cooks website, I knew they had to be made!
I then took them with me to my friend Ginny's BBQ, and they certainly went down well. They are so easy to make, have a wonderful soft and chewy consistency and are also gluten free which is always a plus!
Recipe: (makes 12 medium sized cookies)
- 1 cup of peanut butter
- 1 cup of light brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 50g dark chocolate, chopped in to chunks (can use milk/white also)
How to make:
- Preheat the oven to 180c, and line and grease 2 baking trays.
- Measure out and then put all of the ingredients, apart from the chocolate chunks, in to a large bowl and stir vigourously (as the mix will be quite stiff) until combined. Then add the chocolate chunks and stir them in.
- Put the mixture on to the baking trays, making 12 blobs of the mixture. Space them evenly apart as they spread when they are in the oven. Bake for about 8 minutes, but keep an eye on them as they can over bake very quickly.
- Take them out of the oven when they are golden brown on top, they will still be slightly squidgey. Let them cool on a wire rack and then tuck in!
Note: They are best enjoyed on the day you baked them, as they tend to get a little chewy overnight. But they could probably be refreshed by popping them in the oven for a few minutes.
