Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies


This is yet another recipe from the talented Jonna, who's website is www.justgetoffyourbuttandbake.com. Truly, these are probably my favorite cookies of ALL time now! And Dallin says they're his favorite too. I like to call them "loaded cookies," because they are chock-full of everything that makes a cookie good: oatmeal, peanut butter, gooey warm chocolate chips... just go make them right now! 

Ingredients
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
1 cup all-purpose flour
 1 teaspoon baking soda
 1/2 teaspoon salt
 1 cup rolled oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

 Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. 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, 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.

3. Bake for 8 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are golden. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks. Notes: I baked these cookies and followed the recipe exactly. (about 9 minutes baking time) They don’t spread very much so you can fit quite a few on one baking sheet. These cookies also come out of the oven very soft, so be sure to let them cool on the sheet for several minutes before attempting to remove or they’ll just crumble and fall apart. So good!
