First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter, peanut butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Mix on high for 2 to 3 minutes, until no clumps of butter remain.
Then, add in eggs and vanilla. Stir to combine.
Add in flour, baking soda and sea salt. Stir to combine.
Fold in chocolate chips.
Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan. Space at least 2 inches apart.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until edges have started to turn golden.
Finally, remove from oven. Cookies will be soft and gooey. Allow cookies to cool on pan for at least 10 minutes. Then carefully move to a cooling rack.
Notes
Use cold butter right from the fridge. Do not use melted or softened butter.
Mix butter, peanut butter and sugars until completely combined.
Both regular all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour work well. Do not substitute another flour.
The cookie dough will be pretty thick. It should not be sticky.
Use an ice cream scooper to ensure evenly sized, round cookies.
Do not bake too long. Bake until cookies look gooey but set in the middle.
These cookies are soft and fragile when warm. Handle carefully.
