Chocolate-Peanut Butter Puppy Chow Cookies

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. 2In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  3. 3Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth.
  4. 4In a second bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry mix to the peanut butter mixture and stir just until a dough forms.
  5. 5Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed Chex.
  6. 6Scoop 1 1/2-tablespoon balls of dough and space them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets.
  7. 7Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked. Cool on the sheets for 5 minutes, then move to a wire rack until just warm.
  8. 8Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Gently roll each warm cookie in the sugar until coated, then cool completely so the coating sets.
