I am such a chocolate and peanut butter junkie and these cookies hit the spot when I was looking for a yummy treat (I must admit- I probably ate tons more dough than I did actual cookies! We are actually big cookie dough fans in our family. When we were growing up, my mom would save my dad a blob of cookie dough when she made cookies so that he could have a little bite of dough when he got home from work. Is that true love or what?!)!

I usually make myself sick eating cookie dough whenever I make cookies:-) Chocolate and peanut butter is always the way to go too!!! Great cookies!
Seriously just went to the store for the ingredients to this after seeing this post! They are in the oven now. Thanks for sharing! 🙂 xoxo
Amen sista! I think if food was scarce and all we had was chocolate and peanut butter, I will surely survive! I feel bad for those who do not like chocolate or those allergic to peanut…
What exactly is a medium sized bag?
Do you have an eggless recipe? Thanks
Can’t wait to try these cookies!! We used to save cookie dough for my brother when he lived at home too!! He loved it!
So at my grocery store, the M & M bags have “Medium”, “Large” and “X-Large” printed on the bags. I am so sorry that I didn’t check out the ounces of the bag. It is about the same size as a bag of chocolate chips (or about 2 cups).
Yes, that is true love! My stomach is screaming for these cookies 🙂 Good job with the blog by the way, congratulations to you and your sisters!!!!
Tasty looking cookies – my kids would love these!
Thanks for linking to a Round Tuit!
Hope you have a fabulous week!
