Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies





















INGREDIENTS:
* 2 cups flour
* 1 tsp baking soda
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
* 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
* 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 2 eggs
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 12 oz chocolate chunks


HOW TO MAKE:
Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a separate bowl, beat together butter and peanut butter until smooth. Add in both sugars until mixed. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until smooth. Add in flour mixture a little at a time until combined. Stir in chocolate chunks. Scoop out 1-inch round cookie dough and place on cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until browned. Cool on wire rack. Makes about 2 dozen.


These are so delicious!!! Just the perfect amount of sweetness. So easy to make. For the chocolate chunks, I just went to Winco and bought the huge chocolate chunks and chopped that up to make the chunks for the cookies. Much cheaper than buying the bag of chocolate chunks from the grocery store. Enjoy!
