PEANUT BUTTER, OATMEAL, CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE....HOLY SMOKES!

Another cookie I am loving is the Peanut butter, chocolate chip, oatmeal cookie...It's all three yummy ingredients in one cookie....I got the recipe from HERE.....again I used the semi sweet and the milk chocolate and I threw in a few DARK CHOCOLATE...my favorite...no one likes dark chocolate, but me in my family. So I thought hummmm I'll sneak in a few to see it anyone will notice.....So far my middle daughter, Chelsea has had two cookies and she loved them...hehehh....I also do this with onions...not in cookies..lol heheheh...but when I cook dinner I throw onions into most of my dinners. I use my NINJA chopper and no one knows...hehehe

I also make a Chocolate Chip Cookie found HERE

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla and egg until well blended. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the batter just until moistened. Mix in the oats and chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Drop by tablespoonfuls on to lightly greased cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges start to brown. Cool on cookie sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Bake on ungreased cookie sheet for 8-10 min. Note: I take them out of the oven before they start to turn dark! Do not double this recipe, or they don't bake soft. Can make this recipe for bars too.
