5 from 8 votes
Soft, chewy chocolate chip cookies loaded with creamy peanut butter and oats! These cookies are made with melted butter so no mixer needed, just an hour to chill and you can have fresh baked cookies in no time!
In a large mixing bowl melt the butter, Add in the sugars and mix to combine. Add in the peanut butter and mix again. Mix in the vanilla and eggs, one at a time.
1 cup Unsalted butter, 1 cup Granulated sugar, 1/2 cup Light brown sugar, 1 1/2 cups Creamy peanut butter, 2 whole Eggs, 1 tbsp Vanilla extract
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently mix until combined. Fold in the oats and chocolate chips. Cover and chill for 60 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Using a portion scoop or measuring spoon, scoop even sized balls of cookie dough - roughly 1 oz. Arrange evenly on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2-3 inches between each cookie.
Bake for 9-11 minutes until golden brown, cookies will still be soft in the middle. Allow to set for a few minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring to a cooling rack. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired and enjoy!
Notes
*Use a round cookie cutter to scoot cookies into perfect circles after baking!
