Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Obviously if you have a perfect cookie that can act as a base, you have to use it as a base... and what is better than a peanut butter cookie base!? I mean, if you don't like peanut butter, more for me! And all my friends. We all love peanut butter.

These bad boys use the peanut butter cookie base I posted earlier, but with chocolate! So, we have, peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. Right!

Cooking Time: less than 10 minutes

Your Ingredients:

• base recipe, plus:
• between 1 and 2 oz of dark chocolate, crushed/chopped, or dark chocolate chips*

Anything over 65% dark should be good, if you can find it. I haven't been able to find chips darker than 50%, but I used a Lindt 85% bar. An ounce is about 30g (28g), or 3 squares. I used 2oz the first time I made these but I think I would cut back to 1oz just to reduce the carbs even more (though, chocolate... so... maybe not! As you can see above, it is not that much of a difference anyway.). 

Your Tools:

• a mixing bowl
• a spoon or spatula
• a cookie sheet and parchment paper or baking spray (or both)

The Directions:

Follow the directions found here, but don't crisscross your cookies. There's chocolate bits in there, silly.
