Last night I wanted cookies.  So... I made some.

Peanutbutter Chocolate Chip Cookies
preheat oven to 375 degrees

you'll need:
1/2 cup softened butter
1/2 cup peanut butter (smooth or chunky- whatever you like)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar (can try 1/4 cup honey)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 cup all- purpose flower
1 cup chocolate chips (or more if you like, I don't measure)

now that you have what you need, time to get cookin':
In a large bowl beat the butter and peanut butter with a mixer on medium speed for about 30 seconds.  Add the sugar, brown sugar, baking powder and soda, and beat until all is combined.  Next, beat in the egg and vanilla.  Now, stir in the flour a little bit at a time.  Then add chocolate chips, and mix in.

Now, get a non greased cookie sheet and form little dough balls (I do 12 to a sheet), and place on the cookie sheet.  Press the top with a fork if you like the textured look.  Place in the oven for 8- 10 minutes.  Repeat until all the dough is cooked up into cookies.  Let cookies cool briefly, pour a glass of milk, and dunk those fuckers!
