Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

The bribe needed for feeding my chinchillas while I was traveling: peanut butter chocolate chip cookies.

Yield: 32 cookies


Ingredients


  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 10 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions


  1. Cream together the sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, shortening, butter, and egg.  Mix in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.  Mix in the chocolate chips.
  2. Spoon 1 1/4-inch balls onto an ungreased baking sheet.  Flatten slightly (but don't totally squish them).
  3. Bake at 360°F for 7-8 minutes.  Cool on a wire rack.
