More Peanut Butter Chocolate

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Since peanut butter and chocolate is never a bad choice, I decided to make MORE. These ones are a typical peanut butter cookie but are enhanced with the greatness of chocolate chips. They are really great - crumbly and melt in your mouthish kind of cookies. Here's the recipe. :)

Makes 24 cookies.

1/3 cup of oil
3/4 cup of brown or white sugar (Brown makes them a little chewier. I used half and half.)
1 cup peanut butter (I used smooth, but crunchy might be cool.)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup and 1 tbsp unbleached white flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Cream together oil, sugar, peanut butter and vanilla.
Add flour and baking powder.
Fold in chocolate chips.
Place 3 x 4 on a greased cookie sheet
Bake for 12 minutes at 350°F.
These cookies are very very crumbly until they are cooled so be very careful taking them off the pan and wait until they cool to eat (if you can) because they will fall apart if they aren't cool enough!

Pockets of Peanut Butter

Peanut Butter Chocolate Pockets

I got this one from a recipe called peanut butter pillows, though, I like to call them peanut butter chocolate pockets for two reasons. 1) because it's more fun to say really fast and 2) because it's fun to imagine pockets filled with peanut butter. They are fun, because they look like a pretty regular chocolate cookie with a peanut on top, until you break it open and unleash a pocket of peanut butter.
