Chewy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

 Source, Allrecipes.com

Recipe 2 of Cookie Palooza week!! Now I have to admit so far these are my favorite of the cookies I've made. Actually change that, they're my new favorite cookie! These were SO soft, and had just the perfect blend of peanut butter and chocolate... Needless to say these were the first cookies to be completely devoured in my house, and for good reason! Now I know peanut butter and chocolate combined in a cookie form is nothing new, we've all had the peanut butter cookies with the Hershey's Kiss in the middle, and I do love those cookies. But there's something so delightful about these cookies, I can't say that I'll ever make the others again. I wish I'd had the time (and energy) to do a chocolate drizzle on top of these for decoration, and maybe next time I will. But I sincerely hope that you will enjoy these this holiday season as a great addition to your Christmas baking, and a new treat for you all! Oh and did I mention these are fabulous with a hot cup of coffee?!?! *sigh*
