Peanut Butter Choc Chip Cookies


Ingredients

60g peanut butter  (made from EDC recipe)
125g butter
110g sugar
110g raw sugar
1 tsp  vanilla extract
1 egg
125g chocolate chips
310g Self-rising flour

Preparation

Mill 110g of raw sugar on speed 9 for 3 seconds

Add butter, peanut butter and another 110g of raw sugar to bowl and cream on speed 3 for approx 1 minute until light and fluffy

Add egg and mix on speed 3 or 4 for 5 seconds.

Add chocolate chips and turn TMX to speed 3 + reverse

Gradually add flour through hole in the lid until all combined (approx 30 seconds)

Bake in a moderate 180° oven (160° fan forced) for 12-15 min until golden brown.

These are a treat in our house as they aren't particularly healthy but OH SO YUMMY and moresih (you have been warned!!). I have made them reducing the sugar by half when I am feeling really mean but find they come out almost cake like (would the lack sugar have this effect?)

members' comments

obbie - another recipe that is easy, taste great. My kids loved them. Thank you.

JD - Whipped up a batch - rolled them into little balls the size of walnuts and it made 45 cookies.  As I like mine crunchy like biscuits instead of cookies, I cooked them longer.  Thanks for posting this one.

VHJ - These are yummo Faffa. I think I got 50 but a few disappeared before I counted them.

MJ - Yep, they're yummy. I made large ones, so only 35. A bit sweet for my taste. I reduced sugar to 100g of powdered raw and 100g raw, but I think I'd go for 80g of each next time. Lovely crunchy texture cooked for 20 minutes.
Actually, I just had another one today and it's not really that sweet! Must have been just how my palate was at the time.
Just another idea, when I make biscuits or cakes in the TMX, I use the dough button to add the flours. I find this incorporates dry ingredients much faster. It only generally takes 20 seconds, depending on the size of the mixture.

cookie - Kathryn, they sure are yummy. I took MJ's advice and only put 80g sugar in each time. They were Mmmmmmmmmm. I got nearly 40 out of my batch and hopefully they'll last a few days.

Chelsea - I made these today and they are YUMMO!!!  Thanks Kathryn. I made the peanut butter as a step in the recipe rather than beforehand and it worked well. As my eldest son can't have refined sugar I used 200g of rapadura and a block of rapadura sweetened chocolate.

Great work faffa_70 - as VYY says - great combo of flavours.  I made a few pseudo spiders with noodles, peanuts and choc for MrsT the other night - she loved them so she will absolutely love these.

glad I am not the only one that bakes at what other people call ridiculous hours Robyn 

These are yummy - a little too yummy. If the older kids want to bribe DH for anything this is what they make

I must have missed these, anything with peanut butter and chocolate is a sure winner in this household. Thanks.

I would like to make these cookies! They look so yummy!

I need to ask something though   
I don't know how to make peanut butter 
I found a recipe at http://www.kidsinperth.com/htm/KIP%20104/Health&Sport&Nutrition.htm
I copy-pasted below
Is it the same one you use to make peanut butter?
If so, how much sugar do you use to make peanut butter of 500g peanuts?

Peanut butter
Ingredients:
500 g roasted, unsalted peanuts
Sugar to taste
Method:
If using sugar to sweeten, pulverise the sugar first for 20 seconds on turbo.
Add peanuts to the bowl and cook for 10 minutes at 100oC on speed 2.
This results in a chunky peanut paste.
Spoon into a jar and seal.
For a smoother consistency continue with the following
Pulverise for 30 seconds on speed 7.  Continue with this action until you attain the desired consistency.
Spoon into a jar and seal.
Will last 14-21 days in the refrigerator.

This is the recipe for Peanut Butter in our book Farfallina.

200g salted or unsalted peanuts
2 tablespoons sunflower oil

Place nuts into TM bowl and mix for 10 seconds on speed 6.
If smooth peanut butter is required, continue mixing until nuts are powdered and increase to speed 7 if necessary.  Use spatula to push the nuts towards the blades.
Add oil.  Mix for 10 seconds on speed 6 using the spatula to assist in blending nut paste and oil.  Add a little more oil if required. Scrape down the sides and continue to mix for another 10 seconds on speed 6.
Place spread into sterlised jars and store in cool dry place.
Keeps for 14-21 days.  Refrigerate once opened.

Thanks JD,  Interesting to cook them when making the paste Farfallina - I will be interested to try that one. Need to use up the other first, might need to make some more cookies 

[farfallina]

Thanks a lot JD!!!  It was so nice of you to type all the recipe!

I will make it as soon as I buy peanuts. (There aren't peanuts in the supermarket where i go often)

I will use your version because also Faffa used that one to make the cookies 

[judydawn]

You can use the ready bought peanut butter if you can't get the peanuts farfallina.

[farfallina]

I would need to buy peanut butter from hipermarket as well
In local shops or smaller supermarkets it is not very common
