What Makes This Dish So Tasty
These cookies are quick to make and use wholesome ingredients. They have a rich, nutty flavor and a soft, chewy texture that satisfies sweet cravings without being too heavy. Perfect for a healthy treat any time of day.
Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar and eggs until the mixture is nice and smooth. Then, add the peanut butter and keep beating until everything is well combined. Next, stir in the flour, chocolate chips, and baking soda until the dough comes together. Scoop out the dough and roll it into balls, spacing them about 2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Press down gently on each ball with the back of a spoon to flatten them a bit. Pop the tray into the oven and bake for about 15 to 25 minutes, until the cookies turn a lovely golden brown. Let them cool for a few minutes before enjoying!
