    Jumbo Peanut Butter Cookies

    Jump to Recipe
    jumbo peanut butter cookies

    Sometimes a normal-sized cookie will just not do. Well, for those times, I bring you my chocolate-chip infused Jumbo Peanut Butter Cookies.

    These oversized peanut butter cookies are soft and chewy with bold peanut butter flavor in every bite. The chocolate perfectly pairs with the nutty sweetness and a light shimmer of sugar on top gives these cookies next level status.

    Oh, and yes, these Jumbo Peanut Butter Cookies are totally vegan. No fridge chill time needed! Whip these up and enjoy a giant cookie today!…

    Classic Cookie Recipe

    This is a classic cookie gone vegan. Peanut butter and chocolate is such a beloved flavor combination. And these cookies take that classic duo and veganize things.

    In general, cookies are really easy to veganize! These Jumbo Peanut Butter Cookies simply sub out eggs and butter with vegan versions. Everything else is already vegan to begin with.

    If you want to make sure your sugar is vegan, you can buy “organic sugar” – but you certainly don’t need to nit-pick that if you don’t care to.

    Peanut Butter Cookies

    I love peanut butter cookies. They are probably my overall favorite cookie for snacking. I always feel like eating a peanut butter cookie is … well.. good for me! Ha. The peanut butter is filled with good stuff and well, cookies in general give me a mood boost. So yeah, these cookies are definitely part of my wellness regimen. And I suggest you add a few treats to your wellness regimen as well.

    Because seriously, desserts are necessary, yes? Pretty sure we eat dessert every day in our house.

    Jumbo Size

    You do not need to make these Jumbo Peanut Butter Cookies in a jumbo size. If you make balls that are a bit smaller, you should get about 12-14 cookies out of this dough. But, I really think it is fun to make these into jubo cookies.

    The dough is sturdy enough upon blending to mold the balls in your hand without any fridge time. Which really cuts down on cookie prep time.

    Smashing the cookies down with a fork helps them spread and adds that cute, classic peanut butter cookie. design on top.

    Those Chocolate Chips?

    I specifically used Super Cookie Chips in these. They remind me of (non-vegan) chocolate kisses! Because they melt so easily in the cookies and in your mouth. But any vegan chocolate chip – or even chopped chocolate bar will work.

    Or go chocolate-free and do plain peanut butter cookies!

    Nap Time Cookies

    I just realized I have baked a lot of new cookie recipes here the past few weeks. I think it is because cookies are so easy to nibble with a baby on my hip. And baking cookies can be done in twenty-five minutes. And I can kinda do cookies with my eyes closed .. or a sleep-deprived brain at least, lol.

    But really. Tired moms can bake cookies in their sleep. Hooray.
