peanut butter chocolate chip cookies

Maybe I should call these Double Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies? Why?? Because the cookie dough contains peanut butter AND peanut butter baking chips.

Have you seen them yet? You can get a combo of peanut butter baking chips and milk chocolate baking chips in the same bag. I might caution you though. You might want to buy two bags. Because you might end up eating the baking chips by the handful. (Not that I did that or anything.) I had to resist – because I only had 1 bag and needed them all for the cookies.

So if you have trouble with eating plain chocolate chip cookies right out of the bag, you’ll need an extra bag for snacking. And if you already love Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, you might just go ahead and get 3 bags. Because…

You will eat them by the handful. You just will.

Because…peanut butter and chocolate. It’s a match made in sweet flavor heaven.

Now, get this printed out and get these made for after school snacks or dessert this week.

And no need to feel guilty for eating them by the handful. I’ll support you in those efforts and not feel guilty with you. 😉
