Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
1 cup unsalted butter, 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Mix dry ingredients into the creamed mixture. Fold in the peanut butter chips.
2 cups all-purpose flour, 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 3/4 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, 1 3/4 cups peanut butter chips
Use a medium cookie scoop (about 1.5 tablespoons) to drop cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until set. Let cool 1-2 minutes on the cookie sheets, then transfer to wire racks.

For large cookies, use a large (3 tablespoon) cookie scoop and increase the baking time to about 12 minutes.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days.
