Recipe: Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies!

Yummmm!

These are some of my favorite cookies! And I have only made them 3 times!
(Yes Sarah these are the ones I brought to you in the hospital with Luke. Sorry I did not get you the recipe before we left.)

Ingredients

• 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1/3 cup peanut butter
• 1/2 cup milk

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
2. Cream together butter, sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Mix in vanilla extract and cocoa powder, then add peanut butter, and stir until smooth. Gradually mix in the sifted ingredients until well blended. Pour milk into dough, and stir until fully combined.
3. Drop dough by heaping teaspoons onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, 11 to 13 minutes. For a crunchier cookie, bake an additional minute or two.

I also used 1/4 cup Chocolate chips and pressed 3 in the the top of the cookie. A little extra chocolate never hurt anyone right?

Enjoy!
