Chocolate Peanut Butter Love
April 8, 2008 | Filed Under Cookies, Baking
As usual, I like easy recipes. I found this easy cookie recipe on Nectar & Light. Mmmm! Yum! Chocolate Peanut Butter Love. I love the name of this cookie, too. 
Without complications, I put together the ingredients, that included peanut butter, sugar, honey, eggs, vanilla, flour, baking powder, baking soda and chocolate chips. They tasted so good, especially coming straight from the oven. Soft, warm, sweet. The mixture of the chocolate chips and peanut butter? Divine! Loved it indeed.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Love
~ 1 c. butter {room temp}
~ 1 1/4 c. peanut butter {preferably smooth Jif}
~ 1 c. sugar
~ 1/2 c. honey
~ 2 organic eggs
~ 1/2 t. vanilla
~ 2 1/2 c. flour
~ 1 t. baking powder
~ 1 t. baking soda
~ 1 c. chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350. Smooth butter and peanut butter together - add sugar and mix until well blended. Add honey and mix. In a small bowl, whisk eggs and vanilla - add to butter mixture and incorporate well. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and baking powder together - slowly add to wet mixture. Scrap the bottom of the bowl several times to ensure all of the dry is properly mixed into the wet. Stir in chocolate chips.
Place the dough in the refrigerator for up to 30 minutes. Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper. Using an ice cream scoop {or tablespoon}, create {somewhat} equal sized balls of dough - spacing them about two inches apart on the baking sheet. Return the dough to the fridge between each sheeting. Do NOT flatten the dough with a fork or any other means. Bake each sheet for 12 minutes or until edges just begin to turn gold. Pull from the oven and let the cookies stand for about 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
*These freeze beautifully and defrost quickly if you really must have one right away
