Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

Sharing is caring!

Is there a better union of flavors than Chocolate and Peanut Butter? I think not. I find this blissful match irresistible in just about any form. Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter cookies are great when you are needing a chocolate & peanut butter fix.

These Chocolate chip Peanut Butter cookies are addictive, and my self-control is weak at best, so I don’t really make these too often. These cookies are soft,  moist, and chewy (the way I prefer cookies!). They hold their shape after baking and look lovely on a plate.

This recipe has a very nice balance of peanut butter and chocolate chips here.  It is not as peanuty as traditional peanut butter cookies, but the overall effect is very nice! My kids love these cookies, and a batch will disappear very quickly at my house.
