Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Duo

adapted from Picky Palate

Peanut Butter Cookie
2 cups creamy peanut butter
2 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs

Mix all ingredients together by hand until well combined. Set aside.

Chocolate Chip Cookie
2 sticks softened butter (1 Cup)
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 3/4 cups flour
1¼ cups cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Mix the butter and sugars by hand until well combined. Slowly beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined. Place flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl; mix with fork or sift. Add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined.

Take a Tablespoon of peanut butter dough and a Tablespoon of chocolate dough and gently press together forming a "not so perfect" ball. Don't press and roll too much; just stick them together and place onto a silpat- or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until cookies are cooked through to your liking. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
