What keeps you up at night? World peace, your child's future, nope, not me. I'm thinking about what kind of cookie I want...the classic, sweet chocolate chip, hearty oatmeal, salty peanut butter, hmmm, I just can't decide. How about a trifecta of cookie deliciousness by combing all three! Here is my recipe for a seriously amazing treat that will satisfy your cookie craving.
Begin with butter and peanut butter in a large mixing bowl, mix well.
Add to that both sugars, baking powder and soda and salt, mix well, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Then add in the eggs and vanilla, mix again.
And add in the flour, mix well.
Last comes the goodies, oats, chocolate chips and walnuts, mix just to combine.
I like using an ice cream scoop so that my cookies are the same size and cook evenly, scoop out onto a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
mmmm, just out of the oven, they smell so good! wait just a couple minutes before you move them to a wire rack to cool.
And I'm in heaven, crisis averted:) I hope you enjoy!
