Description

Indulge in these chewy and delicious Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars. Easy to make, perfect for any occasion, and packed with flavor!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Mix the wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla: Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the bowl, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Mix dry and wet ingredients: Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined—don’t overwork the dough.
  6. Add the chocolate chips: Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter chips (if using).
  7. Spread the batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
  8. Bake: Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Cool: Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
  10. Serve and enjoy: Once cool, slice into squares, and enjoy these chewy, rich bars!
