I've always loved the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, so this cookie is a hit with me. Everyone who tries them wants the recipe.
INGREDIENTS (for 4 servings):
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 3/4 cup peanut butter
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
PREPARATION:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, white sugar and peanut butter until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, wheat flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the peanut butter mixture. Finally, mix in the oats and chocolate chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 8 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are golden. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
