Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
If I had to choose my all time favorite dessert from Six Sisters’ Stuff, it would definitely be our Lunch Lady Peanut Butter Bars!  I have had to put a ban from making them at our house until I finish losing my baby weight, because I tend to eat half the pan….or more!  I finally couldn’t take it anymore and decided I could make a cookie with the same flavor, and boy was I right!  They were delicious!
Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe:
(Makes 3 dozen cookies)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oats (quick or old fashioned)
2 cups milk chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and sugars.  Stir in peanut butter, vanilla and egg until well combined.  Add flour, baking soda and salt.  Fold in oats and chocolate chips and mix until combined.  Roll into 1″ balls and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.  Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.

    These look amazing! I am planning on making them this week but I wanted to add protein powder and ground flax seed. If I do this, should I just increase a little of the peanut butter?

    I tried these today, only with one change - 1/4 cup applesauce in place of the egg - and that was just because I was out of eggs. But they turned out great! I will definitely make these again.

    We made these last night, and the batter turned out pretty runny. Any ideas why? I would add more Oatmeal next time.

    Making these right now! Had to use almond butter instead of peanut because I didn't have enough AND I accidentally doubled the amount of oats but they look like they're going to turn out and smell utterly fantastic! I may have to make these "mistakes" again!

    My experience: The batter was a little to loose so I added additional oatmeal, then used a small scoop instead of rolling into balls. My recipe made 23 cookies of a perfect size. 3 dozen of these would be quite small in my opinion. The verdict was a resounding YUMMMM!

    My family, hunting buddies and friends all love these. For a twist last night I swapped Nutella for peanut butter and used peanut butter chips. They won't make it through the weekend!
