Hello to all Kristy’s wonderful readers! This is Lyuba from Will Cook For Smiles. I’m so happy to be entertaining you while Kristy is cuddling her brand new baby boy.
While I’m here, I want to share something dear to my heart…cookies!! I have some Peanut Butter Chocolate Soft & Chewy Crinkle Cookies for you and I hope you’ll give them a taste.
Like any other family, we have our favorite cookies. My son and I always go gaga over my soft and chewy crinkle cookies. We love them so much that I make them in all kinds of different flavors. On my site alone, I have them in Coconut Key Lime, Cotton Candy and Banana Pudding flavors. I also have them in chocolate peppermint and pumpkin flavors for my books. Phew…you can tell that these cookies are dear to us.
I recently got a couple extra jars of peanut butter from our local Whole Foods to try. You see, our favorite peanut butter hasn’t been available due to a recall and we’ve been scrambling to find something just as good in the mean time. Our friends at the store gave me some different brands to try because they rock! So I’ve been going a little peanut butter crazy in my kitchen and well, you can see some results here.
These cookies turned out fabulous! They are so soft and moist inside, it’s really a cookie heaven. If you’re a peanut butter/chocolate fan, you will light up over these cookies.
