Incredibly thick, yest super soft cookie that is drowning in peanut butter flavor. This is my absolute favorite peanut butter cookie go to.
Who doesn’t love a good, thick peanut butter cookie? My husband quickly devoured these cookies, as did all of his coworkers. If you’re looking for something easy to make for your spouse to take to work, then these are the cookies. They’re think, but also chewy and packed with peanut butter goodness.
Variations:
Hershey Kisses: Looking to balance out a little peanut butter with some chocolate on top, then go ahead and stick some on at the end of baking for peanut butter blossoms.
Reese’s Cups: Similar to adding Hershey’s kisses, you can pop on mini Reese’s cups right on top.
M&M’s: Another great option to add in would be M&M’s. Pop them in right after all ingredients are mixed together.
Crunchy Peanut Butter: Want a little crunch with your chew, go ahead and add in crunchy instead of smooth peanut butter. It’ll give you that crunch you’re craving.
