Ingredients
  

  • 3 c flour
  • 2 tbsp corn starch
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 c unsalted butter, room temp
  • 3/4 c peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 c brown sugar
  • 1 c sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 17 oz dark chocolate chips ~ 3 cups

Instructions
 

  • Combine the dry ingredients (flour, corn starch, baking soda, baking powder, salt) in a medium bowl.
  • In a larger bowl, whisk the butters and sugars together. Once creamy, add the eggs with vanilla and mix well.
  • Gradually add in the dry flour mixture.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips, keeping a handful on the side.
  • Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour minimum, or up to 72 hours.
  • When you are ready to bake, pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Roll 2 tbsp of cookie dough into a ball and line up onto baking sheet, with 2 inches between each cookie. Press 1-2 chips on top of the cookie.
  • Bake for 8-9 minutes and remove from oven promptly- you may notice gooey centers. Leave the cookies on the pan for 5 more minutes, and then allow them to cool on a cookie rack after 5 minutes. They will be perfectly soft and chewy. Enjoy with ice cream or milk!
