Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

When someone brings me dinner, I feel like I need to do something for them in return. Am I the only one? I feel a little empty handed bringing back their dishes...so I always try to bring a treat or something. I have been the lucky recipient of some amazing meals the past few weeks. I am so lucky to live in this great neighborhood, with the most amazing friends.
I kind of get sick of making the same cookies over and over, so I was excited to try out this recipe. These cookies were so chewy and perfect. I think I ate these one night instead of dinner. Yum!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, soft
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups flour
1/2  to 1 tablespoon milk
1/2 to 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Mix together butter and peanut butter until creamy. Add sugar, brown sugar, baking soda and baking powder. Mix well. Add vanilla, eggs and flour. Once combined, add milk. Just a little bit to make dough creamy. Then add chocolate chips. If necessary chill dough for an hour. Then use cookie scoop (or spoon) and scoop into small balls and place on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 8-9 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
