Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies

Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies - simple yet divine! x  Before you know it they will all be gone - please see the recipe below!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies (makes about 15 - 20)

1 cup chunky peanut butter (I highly recommend Pic's Original No Salt) 

1/2 cup raw sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla essence

2 free-range egg

2/3 cup rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used Whittaker's 50% Cocoa Dark Block)

a pinch of salt, if you wish (not if your peanut butter happens to be salted!)

Preheat the oven to 180C.  Line an oven tray with baking paper.  Beat together peanut butter, raw sugar, eggs and vanilla until smooth.  Mix in rolled oats and baking soda.  Fold in chocolate pieces.  

Roll dough into balls and evenly place onto baking paper.  Flatten gently with prongs of fork.  Bake cookies for 10 mins and remove when edges begin to turn golden brown.  Cookies will continue to cook once removed from the oven.  Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Enjoy with a nice cool glass of milk!
