Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Magic

These cookies really are the best! They have quickly become a favorite at the Pelfrey house simply because they are super easy to make and fast to bake.  Peanut Butter cookies are a classic staple in anyone's recipe book, but adding the chocolate chips just gives it that extra great flavor! And they are  gluten-free. You just can't go wrong!

It was exactly what my prego-ness was craving. So I whipped up a batch. It took less than one Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode to mix and bake, which meant that my little helper was distracted until he smelled them baking.


Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

1 C. Sugar

1 C. Smooth Peanut Butter (you can use chunky if you prefer)

2 Tsp. Baking Soda

1 Egg

1/2 -3/4 C. Semi-Sweet chocolate chips

Mix sugar and baking powder together in medium bowl. Add peanut butter and egg until mixed in and dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Add chocolate chips 1/4 cup at a time and eyeball it until you think there's enough. If you add too many, the dough doesn't stick together very well.

 Use a spoon to scoop dough, form into balls, and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 8-9 minutes or until cookies begin to brown on the edges. Let cookies cool on cookie sheet for 1-2 minutes then place on a cooling rack. Store in airtight container.  This recipe should make about 2 dozen if you don't sneak any of the dough (like I did).

Enjoy with a tall glass of milk! And believe me, you'll want milk. These cookies are sweet!

Ethan, Dan, and I sure enjoyed them! They are even great the next day--if they last that long!
