How to Make Peanut Butter And Chocolate Chunk Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup creamy peanut butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups rolled oats, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks and ½ cup chopped pecans.
  7. Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or up to overnight).
  8. Scoop rounded ¼ cup portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 3 inches between each cookie.
  9. Gently press each cookie to a ¾-inch thickness.
  10. Bake for 14-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
