These pan-banging chocolate chip peanut butter cookies are without a doubt my favorite cookie recipe on this blog! They're made with just 10 ingredients, all of which I bet you already have in your pantry. Though they do require some chill time, the chewy edges, soft & buttery centers, and pools of melted chocolate make it well worth the wait!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Brown Butter for Deep Flavor 🧈Brown your unsalted butter before mixing to develop nutty, complex flavors that elevate the entire cookie beyond standard recipes.
- Strategic Chocolate Placement 🍫Reserve some chocolate chips to press into the dough after portioning onto the baking sheet, ensuring visible melted chocolate pools on the finished cookies.
- The Pan-Bang Technique ⚡Gently bang the hot baking sheet on the oven rack 2-3 times at the 10-minute mark to create those signature crinkled edges while keeping centers soft.
- Chill Time Optimization ❄️Chill dough for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to prevent spreading and create that coveted chewy center with crispy edges.
- Peanut Butter Selection Matters 🥜Use natural or freshly ground peanut butter rather than overly processed brands to avoid excess oil, which can cause greasy, flat cookies.
