Martha Stewart's Chunky Peanut Butter Cookies

Martha doesn't know this but I added chocolate chips to her chunky peanut butter cookies. I figured why have peanut butter cookies when you can have peanut butter chocolate chip cookies! So if you aren't addicted to chocolate as I am, feel free to omit the chocolate chips.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup butter (two sticks)
  


• 3/4 cup chunky peanut butter
  


• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  


• 1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
  


• 1 large egg
  


• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  


• 1 cup all-purpose flour
  


• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  


• 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Preparations:

1. Mix butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg and vanilla. Beat well.
   


2. Separately combine flour and baking soda. Mix well.


3. Combine both sets of ingredients and mix well.

Bake at 375 for 12 minutes.

Servings: 2 dozen
