PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

You can make these without any chips in them and they are still perfect. I like them because they are not overly sweet.

1 c margarine
1 c peanut butter
1 c white sugar
1 c brown sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
12 oz bag milk chocolate chips (or Reese's peanut butter chips are good too!)


Preheat oven to 375 grease cookie sheets

Cream peanut butter, sugars and margarine until creamy.

Beat in eggs, one at at time.

Stir in vanilla.

Combine flour, soda and salt together in separate bowl, stir into peanut butter mixture.

Roll dough into 1 inch balls, place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.
Wet fork dipped in sugar and make criss cross patterns. (I have also elimated this step and they are just fine without it)

Bake 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on wire rack, get a cold glass of milk and enjoy!
