Two of my favorite flavors in one cookie I have to make some .
Homemade peanut butter cookies have been my favorite since childhood when Mom let us kids roll out the balls and press them with a fork. Adding chocolate is a no-brainer (that I never even considered). LOL. Trying this as soon as I can gather the ingredients.
I love chocolate and peanut butter together. These look delicious.
looks tasty
