January 31-Dark Chocolate PB’s with White Chocolate Chips

Happy Friday Blog Buddies! I don’t know about you, but I’m welcoming this weekend with a huge hug…and some chocolate.

Although I love baking, I don’t do it as much as I’d like. My husband and I both enjoy a good cookie every now and then, but our taste-preferences tend to lean more toward savory than sweet. I just can’t bring myself to bake an entire batch of cookies when I know we will only eat a few.

Tonight our church small group is getting together for a dinner potluck and Sunday we are hosting a Super Bowl shindig at our house. I always welcome the chance to bake for a group!

 Last night I whipped up a scrumptious batch of incredible gooey cookies that were just too good not to share. I was pretty proud myself for straying from a recipe and taking the adventurous route. I was even more proud of myself when I took the first bite of this original recipe and discovered that these little buddies were absolutely delicious!

 I then proceeded to eat three (Okay, okay, I ate some of the dough too. Guilty.)

Enjoy!

 Dark Chocolate PB’s with White Chocolate Chips

1 cup butter

3.      Mix in eggs, peanut butter, and vanilla.

5.      Roll dough into small balls (About the size of a tbsp to the size of a golf ball, depending on how big you like your cookies). Place dough on a greased cookie sheet and press down with a fork.

6.      Bake on 375 for 10 minutes, or until cookies are done but not crispy.
