A fan of chocolate chip cookies? Oatmeal cookies? Peanut butter cookies? Why not combine the three? That's what Leah and I have done. These are lovely cookies, adapted (and, of course, improved) from a recipe we found online. Enjoy!
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup flour
1 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375F.
Cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars together. Add egg and beat until...well until you get tired of beating it, be that ten seconds or ten minutes. (I don't think it actually matters.) Add in vanilla. Sift flour, soda and salt together. (Once again, I think this is a useless step and usually just add them all at once.) Add flour mixture and oats to batter and mix well. Add chocolate chips and hand stir, just until mixed.
Roll dough into balls and put on cookie sheet (I know, duh). Bake for 8 minutes until edges turn golden brown. Remove and eat. (Oh fine, you can cool on a wire rack if you really want to.)
Yield about 3 dozen cookies. Each is about 125 calories. Enjoy!
