SALTED PEANUT BUTTER-PRETZEL-CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES - CC RECIPE



Salted Peanut Butter-Pretzel-Chocolate Chip Cookies - CC Recipe image

Provided by á-48655

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups (6 1/4 ounces) all-purpose flour
1 cup (3 ounces) quick oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups packed (8 3/4 ounces) light brown sugar
2/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 ounces pretzel sticks, coarsely crushed (2/3 cup)
Flake sea salt

Steps:

  • 1. Combine flour, oats, baking soda, and salt in bowl. Using stand mixer fitted with paddle, beat butter and sugar on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add peanut butter, egg, and vanilla and mix until fully incorporated, about 30 seconds, scraping down bowl as needed. 2. Reduce speed to low and slowly add flour mixture; continue to mix until just combined. Add chocolate chips and pretzels and mix until just incorporated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. 3. Adjust oven racks to upper-middle and lower-middle positions and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Working with 2 tablespoons chilled dough at a time, roll into 1 1/2-inch balls and space them evenly on prepared sheets, 12 per sheet. Press each ball to 3/4-inch thickness using bottom of greased dry measuring cup. 4. Bake until puffed and cracks just form on top, 11 to 13 minutes, switching and rotating sheets halfway through baking. Let cookies cool on sheets for 5 minutes. Sprinkle cookies with sea salt, then transfer to wire rack. Let cookies cool completely before serving.

Tips:

  • For the perfect combination of flavors, use a creamy peanut butter and a sweet and salty pretzel.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can use a hand mixer or even a large bowl and a wooden spoon. Just be sure to mix the ingredients until they are well combined.
  • If you want a chewier cookie, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • To make sure the cookies don't spread too much, be sure to preheat the oven before baking.
  • Keep an eye on the cookies while they're baking. They should be golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the center.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before enjoying. This will help them to firm up and set.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter pretzel cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that's perfect for any occasion. With their sweet and salty flavor combination, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty snack, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
