Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies-Bri

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 1/4 flour
1 1/4 cup guittard chocolate chips

In a mixing bowl, beat butter and peanut butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the sugar, brown sugar and mix until combined.  Add the baking soda, baking powder, vanilla, and egg. Beat until combined.  Add the flour and mix thoroughly.  Stir in the chocolate chips.

Chill the dough for about 30 minutes.  You don't want it to be really stiff though.  If you leave it longer than 30 minutes, just let the dough warm on the counter for 5 or 10 minutes until it's workable before baking.

Form the dough into 1 inch balls and place on a greased baking pan.  Bake for 6 minutes at 350 degrees.

Makes 4 dozen cookies (I use a 1 inch scoop, so they are smaller cookies).
