Peanut Butter Chocolate Chips Cookies ~ page 214

If you like the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, you will love this cookie. 

There are a couple blips in this recipe though...ok, mistakes..(it is hard to say that..) Who knows where my mind was when I typed this one up. I was taking the info off of a scrap of paper from a long ago friend, and everything was written as minimally as possible...so I had to fill in the blanks each time I made it for the past 15 years! Anyway, in the cookbook, it says to add 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract. Well, if you have ever made cookies before, you know that is too much! It should read 2 teaspoons. And when the recipe calls for 1 1/4 sticks butter, the recipe says that is 3/4 cup, but that is not right. 1 1/4 sticks equals 10 tablespoons (1 stick plus 2 tablespoons).  These corrections will also be on the recipe correction tab at the top of the blog.

Now, back to the business of this wonderful cookie...

I am not one of those people that goes nuts over eating raw cookie dough...I would prefer to wait till my cookie is baked to perfection. However...with this cookie, I can't seem to stop eating the dough! By the time I have them baked, I am sure I eat an equivalent of 4 raw cookies. This dough is just so yummy (and I don't say "yummy" often)!

I like to use these giant dark chocolate chips. They are almost twice the size of regular chips. They cost about 30 cents more than the Hershey's, so it is not a big price jump to enjoy these great chips.

I thought maybe all these luscious pictures might help make up for the corrections you will need to make to your cookbook for this recipe.
