Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
There is something to be said about soft & chewy peanut butter cookies. You know, the ones that are just a bit crispy around the edges, and have a soft, chewy center. I have tried many, many times to get the perfect consistency – which I assure you, is not easy to do. These cookies however, are perfect. And because I have a thing for chocolate & peanut butter, I added in some chocolate chips… for good measure!
