This one is for all the American readers out there. I have never tried peanut butter cookies before and well, all I can say is you guys know a good thing. Wow, how good are they!!! I normally like a soft centre gooey cookie, but these are soft, melt in your mouth almost like eating whipped peanut butter, with the added goodness of chocolate. I think these are my new favourite cookies. I’m going to start experimenting with more peanut butter in my recipes after this one. Do you have great peanut butter recipe you want to share??

These look really yummy!
I was about to test this recipe but I started to wonder should the recipe include both sugar and brown sugar? At least the instruction implies that both are needed but the ingredient list mentions only brown sugar.

Hi Maria,
Thanks for picking that up, all fixed now. I hope you give them a try, I really liked them. Have you had peanut butter in cookies before, it gives them a different texture.
Have a great evening.

Hello from New Zealand 🙂
My daughter and I decided to do some baking this afternoon so we tried out this recipe and all I can say is WOW!!! Fantastic recipe… my partner thinks they are particularly Moorish! Thanks so much for sharing xx

Hi Shell,
Yes they are so moorish, I can’t stop at one. I recently made two batched and they didn’t last long. I’m so glad your family enjoyed them.
