How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a stand mixer, combine the cold butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat until creamy.
  3. Incorporate the large egg and egg yolk into the mixture until combined.
  4. Pour in the vanilla extract and mix until evenly blended.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, kosher salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until mostly incorporated.
  7. Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chunks, milk chocolate chips, and peanut butter chips.
  8. Scoop the dough into 8 large balls and place on the baking sheets, flattening them slightly.
  9. Transfer to the oven and bake for 12-13 minutes, looking for set edges and slight cracks on top.
  10. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
