PEANUT BUTTER & CHOCOLATE CHIP CREAM CHEESE COOKIES

Make and share this Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Cookies recipe from Food.com.

Provided by CutiePi69

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h27m

Yield 20 Cookies, 5-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (12 ounce) can seamless crescent rolls
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup peanut butter chips (use a mixture) or 3/4 cup chocolate chips (use a mixture)

Steps:

  • Beat sugar, cream cheese and vanilla together until smooth and creamy.
  • Unroll the crescent roll sheet onto lightly floured surface. . Stretch the dough out, I use a rolling pin to do this, then trim the edges to give it a good rectangular shape. A pizza cutter is great for trimming edges of dough. Pinch together seams on pre-cut crescents if necessary.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture over the top of the crescent sheet, leaving a gap at the edge about 1/2 inch.
  • Sprinkle your chips on top of cream cheese - press them in lightly to aid in rolling.
  • Roll the crescent sheet up tightly and wrap in cling wrap.
  • Place in freezer for at least 2 hours it won't get really solid as the cream cheese mix won't freeze hard.
  • When chilled preheat oven to 350°.
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper (prevents sticking and helps in cleanup).
  • Slice the crescent roll into 1/4" slices. They won't keep the precise round shape, but that is fine!
  • Bake on prepared cookie sheet for 12 -14 minutes until crescent roll appears golden brown.
  • Cool on the parchment paper or wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. The better the chocolate chips, the better the bars will taste. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a high cacao content.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bars tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the bars hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set. Overbaking will make the bars dry and crumbly. The bars are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Chocolate cream cheese peanut butter bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. The bars are rich and chocolatey, with a creamy peanut butter filling and a crispy cookie crust. They are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
