Flourless Double-Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

INGREDIENTS

3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Combine all ingredients except the chocolate chips in a medium-sized bowl and knead by hand to blend thoroughly. Knead in the chocolate chips.

For puffier cookies, place the dough in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes before proceeding.

Form the dough into 1-inch balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. They will look barely done or slightly undercooked. They can burn very quickly, so watch them closely towards the end of the cooking time. Cool on a wire rack.

Yields about 24 cookies.
