Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

irgtabvsgmf2.jpg


Serves: Makes 16-20 cookies
Ingredients

1 cup extra crunchy peanut butter
1 egg
½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F degrees. In a medium size bowl, stir to combine the peanut butter, sugar, brown sugar, and egg. Add the chocolate chips and stir again.
Using a cookie scooper or a 1 teaspoon measuring spoon, drop the batter onto a large baking sheet.
Bake the cookies for about 8 minutes or until lightly browned. I prefer crunchy cookies, so I bake about 9-10 minutes (my oven usually requires a bit more time than most recipe instructions).
Remove from oven and let sit on the tray for 5 minute before placing them on a wire rack to cool (because they are really soft).

Enjoy!

    Batch is about 2735 calories. So divide by number of cookies.

  • the recipe I always use is 1 cup of Kraft 25% less fat smooth pb, 1 egg and a 1/2 cup organic coconut palm sugar

    the nutritional value is as follows (this is if the recipe makes 24 cookies)

    Calories - 74 per cookie
    - fat 3.9
    - sat fat .7
    - cholesterol 7
    - sodium 12
    - carbs 7.4
    - fiber .5
    - sugar 4.5
    - protein 2.2

    If there was some way to swap out the sugar, the nutritional value might go down even more !!! It's yummy either way but for 24 cookies, they aren't very big..that's the downer

    Have you tried using the Splenda Sugar Blend?
