Peanut Butter Oat Chippers



Here’s another cookie recipe we stumbled across called Peanut Butter Oat Chippers.  As you know, my family and I LOVE cookies, and we LOVE trying new cookie recipes.  If you like peanut butter and chocolate, these “golf ball” sized cookies will be a wonderful treat for you to try.  My sister and I both made these this week.  She gave hers to the Oklahoma State cross country team after their race, and they devoured them.  I took mine to work and they had “disappeared” by 11:00 am!

This recipe comes from Linda J. Amendt’s “400 Sensational Cookies” cookbook.  Enjoy!!

Cream together butter, peanut butter, and sugars, until fluffy.  Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.  Then beat in vanilla.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

On low speed, gradually beat in the flour mixture.

Gradually stir in oats.

By hand, fold in chocolate and peanut butter chips.

Using a cookie scoop, drop tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 12 minutes, or until edges start to turn lightly golden.  Slide parchment paper on cooling rack to cool.  After 5 minutes, transfer cookies from parchment paper to cooing rack and cool completely.

Serve with a glass of cold milk.
