Peanut butter choc chip
I am letting you in on a little secret of mine.....my go to recipe for chocolate chip cookies. This is by no means a crunchy cookie that spreads out flat once it enters the oven. I am not a fan of hard cookies at all! I like soft, moist, chocolaty little pieces of heaven. If you are like me you will LOVE this cookie. This is my husbands favorite cookie and it just happens to be SUPER SIMPLE to make.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 box of yellow cake mix
1 stick of (softened) butter or margarine
1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter (sometimes I do 1/4 cup creamy, 1/4 cup crunchy)
2 Eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips (I never measure.....just put in how much you want)
Combine all the ingredients together (except the choc. chips) and mix. I wouldnt use a hand mixer because the dough is quite thick. I just take the opportunity to burn a few calories (since I will be devouring cookies) and mix by hand. Once combined add in the chocolate chips.
I use a cookie dough scoop to measure and form my cookies but you can just eye it if that is what you are used to. I do highly recommend a scoop, though. It is just a time saver and makes your cookies all come out the same size and they are all done at the same time!
Bake @ 350
9-11 minutes
(these cookies stay light in color and will burn on the bottoms if you dont keep an eye on them, so once you see they are set take them out!)
Let them set on the cookie sheet for 2 minutes and transfer to a cooling rack.
* you can also try a chocolate or devils food cake mix for double chocolate chip peanut butter cookies. Both are fantastic!
I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

PEANUT BUTTER BROWNIES and a question
These quick, easy, moist, fudgy, addictive peanut butter brownies are the perfect accompaniment to a big glass of cold milk.
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup butter, room temperature
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips
Cream the peanut butter and butter together; beat in the sugars, eggs and vanilla until well combined. Mix in the flour, baking powder and salt until well mixed, then fold in the miniature chocolate chips. Spread into a 9" x 9" greased baking dish.
Bake in preheated 350 oven for about 30 minutes, but start checking for doneness (toothpick test) at 25 minutes. They will be done when the top springs back a little, dont over bake.
I cant believe that it is time to start thinking about Christmas baking!! It is my favorite time of year, when I can bake with wild abandon and it all goes into the freezer for holiday cookie boxes. Do YOU give cookie boxes as gifts? How do you present the cookies? I usually just put my baked goods in a decorated large foil pan, but Im looking for something a little different this year...maybe more festive? Any ideas?
