Yields

7 servings

Ingredients

Peanut butter (1 1/2 sticks),
butter (1 stick),
confectioners’ sugar (1 1/2 cups),
brown sugar (1 cup),
eggs (2),
vanilla extract (1 teaspoon),
all-purpose flour (2 3/4 cups),
baking soda (1 teaspoon),
salt (1/2 teaspoon),
semi-sweet chocolate chips (1 cup),
mini marshmallows (1 cup),
chopped peanuts (1/2 cup),
pizza seasoning (1/2 teaspoon)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together peanut butter and butter until smooth.

Gradually add confectioners’ sugar and brown sugar; mix until combined.

Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients; mix until a dough forms.

Fold in chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, chopped peanuts, and pizza seasoning.

Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Yield: 7 cookies, perfect for a snack or dessert!

Notes

Use high-quality peanut butter for the best flavor. Soften the butter to room temperature for easy mixing.

Don’t overmix the dough, as it can lead to tough cookies.

If using parchment paper, make sure to spray it with non-stick spray for easy cookie removal. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes if you want a more rounded cookie shape.

Keep an eye on the cookies during the last two minutes of baking, as they can quickly go from perfect to burnt.

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
