Chocolate Chip Cookies
Like everybody else, I like simple recipes. Although what I love even more is when a simple recipe is tasty too. But what I love the most is when a tasty, simple recipe leaves almost no dishes behind to wash! These 7-ingredient, one-bowl chewy chocolate chip cookies fit all of these requirements.
When I first tried using peanut butter in cookies I was gobsmacked at how rich and indulgent it made them. I thought they would taste very similar to peanut butter cookies but there was a perfect balance between the peanut butter and the chocolate.
The cookie dough comes together in about 5 minutes in one bowl and tastes soft and chewy. I’m trying out different ice cream recipes that don’t need an ice cream maker and I think once I have perfected it, you’ll see a chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream recipe for the summer.

cookies
|
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
- 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 80 grams chocolate bar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup non-dairy milk
Ingredients

- Preheat the oven to 360 F/180°C
- Chop the chocolate bar into small chocolate chips
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the sugar and soy milk and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Stir in the peanut butter until a smooth consistency is achieved
- Sift in the flour and baking soda and fold in thoroughly with a spatula. Don't over fold in the flour as this could make the cookies gummy by developing the gluten too much
- Finally, fold the chocolate chips into the cookie batter
- Using a heaped tablespoon to measure out cookie batter, spoon out roughly 12 cookies onto a non-stick baking tray. Leave enough room between the cookies to allow for them spreading
- Bake for 13 - 15 minutes, depending on how chewy you want your cookies to be
- Allow cooling for 10 - 15 minutes after taking them out the oven and enjoy!
I only bake these chocolate chip cookies for 14 minutes as I like the cookies having a chewy texture inside. Bake them for a little more if you prefer your cookies having a little more crunch.
How do you prefer your chocolate chip cookies? Chewy or crunchy? Let me know in the comments below and give me shout on Instagram with #deliciousplants so I can take a look!
