- 1/2 cup peanut butter

Instructions
Method: Oatmeal-Peanut Butter Chip Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the peanut butter and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and mix until well combined.
- Crack the egg into the mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Gently fold in the rolled oats and peanut butter and chocolate swirl chips, being careful not to overmix.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between cookies for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden. Centers may look soft but will firm as they cool.
- Remove cookies from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Notes
- Prepare dough ahead and refrigerate for up to 3 days before baking for convenience.
- Freeze dough balls for up to 3 months; bake directly from freezer, adding a few extra minutes to bake time.
- Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or refrigerate for longer freshness.
