Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies



I LOVE LOVE LOVE cookies!!!  They are my favorite sweet treat.  I'm always looking for great flavor combinations, and I came across this recipe on Brown Eyed Baker.  It has all my favorite flavors all in one cookie.  They were ridiculously good and my waist line is still upset with me for grabbing one every time I passed through the kitchen.

Ingredients:

1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 egg
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips ( I used 1/2 cup mini, 1/2 cup regular)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.  

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

In a large stand mixer bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla extract and egg and beat to combine.  Add the flour and mix just until combined.  Add the oats and chocolate chips and mix until distributed evenly.

Use a 2 oz. cookie scoop and drop dough about 2 inches apart.  Makes about 22 cookies. Bake for 10 minutes, or until edges are slightly golden brown.  Let cool completely on baking sheets.  Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.  Enjoy!
