Cookie Ingredients:
- 1 ¼ cups flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar + 3 tbsp for rolling cookies divided
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Cookie Ingredients:
- 1 cup dark chocolate melts semi-sweet chocolate chips will work too
- 1/2 tsp coconut oil
- Sprinkles
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silpat mat.
-
Combine together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl; mix well.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and peanut butter with a hand mixer, until combined. Add 1/2 cup of the white sugar and the brown sugar then beat until creamy and smooth. Add the egg and vanilla. Mix until combined.
-
Slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon, until just combined.
-
Take about 2 tablespoons of dough and form it into a ball.
-
Roll in the remaining 3 tablespoons of white sugar.
-
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
-
Place into the oven and bake the cookies for 9-10 minutes or until they are golden at the edges and just set. Don’t overbake!
-
Remove from the oven and let the cookies set on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
-
Once the cookies are cool and hardened, melt the dark chocolate, with 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil, according to package directions.
-
Dip half of each cookie into the melted dark chocolate, tapping off the excess, and place on a piece of parchment paper.
-
Sprinkle each cookie immediately with sprinkles (so it will stick before the chocolate hardens).
-
Store in a sealed container with parchment paper between layers.
-
Serve with ice-cold milk. Enjoy!
