  • Step 3: In another large bowl with an electric mixer, beat together softened butter and both sugars until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes). Add in eggs, vanilla (or maple extract if using, can use both, 2 tsp maple and 1 tsp vanilla!) and peanut butter; beat until well combined (about 1-2 minutes). Beat in the flour mixture until combined. Add in chocolate chips, grated chocolate and nuts (if using) mix well to combine.
