For the Cookies:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick liner.
Remove both doughs from fridge and take about 1 TBS of each dough. Squish them together and then roll them up into a ball. **
Place the cookie balls onto the prepared cookie sheet, at least 2 inches apart each.
Bake the cookies for about 9 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops have started to crack.
Let the cookies cool for about 5 minutes on the pan before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
**The peanut butter cookie dough is softer than the chocolate cookie dough, but don't worry they bake up together great!
