Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and beat until well combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.

Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
