"From KCTS 9 Kitchen. Guessing on yield. I have not yet made these."
- Ready In:
- 46mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
24 cookies
ingredients
- 12 tablespoons butter
- 6 ounces semisweet chocolate
- 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3⁄4 cup unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 3⁄4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 15 ounces peanut butter morsels
directions
- In a double boiler, melt the butter and chocolate until no clumps of chocolate remain.
- Meanwhile sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl mix the eggs, sugar and vanilla until thoroughly combined. When melted, pour the chocolate and butter slowly into the egg mixture while stirring. Be careful not to add the chocolate too fast, or the eggs could cook. Mix well.
- Add the sifted dry ingredients, and mix until completely incorporated. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to insure that any butter or flour pockets are incorporated.
- Add the peanut butter chips and mix until evenly distributed in the dough. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the bowl so every cookie gets some goodies!
- Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper.
- Chill the scooped cookies in the freezer or refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Bake at 325 degrees for about 16 minutes. The cookies will appear cracked with large fissures across the tops when finished.

<p>My rating system: (I don't like giving bad reviews, so if I don't like it, I'll just not review it.) <br /><br />5 Stars OMG, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
