Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Oreo Chunk Cookies { And a Giveaway!}

Last week Brett and I decided we were going to eat really healthy.  Those Skinny Tuna Melts were about as far as I got. {They were delicious!}  But I made these cookies over the weekend and you can just imagine my husband’s excitement to have them lying around the house.  I think sometimes he thinks I am trying to sabotage him…bring him right down with me.  But this girl just can’t go more than a day without some chocolate….and apparently some peanut butter and some Oreos. But Brett’s always had better self control than me, and I think he only ate like one and a half cookies.  So I don’t feel so bad.

As for me?  Oh mercy damage was done.  And I ate waaaay too much dough. 

But, you know how much I love peanut butter. 

You know how much I love dark chocolate. 

And well, who doesn’t love Oreos? 

I couldn’t stop myself. 

Running 9 miles Saturday morning justified my indulgent behavior (benefits to half marathon training, right?;)). Ten- too-many-cookies later,  I pawned the rest off on some friends–  the best and worst thing I could’ve done.

Must. make. more.

Today’s giveaway is a great one and let me tell you, it is so nice having a house full of all new appliances. I always say we should have wedding receptions every 8-10 years so we can get all new stuff, well now one lucky winner can feel that way all over again!!

*Not everything in the giveaway is in the picture below. There are a few things missing. Please refer to the picture above.

What better way to celebrate a birthday than to provide all new appliances for a reader?! Hamilton Beach has graciously provided this entire list of products for one winner and we hope that you will enjoy them!

Whip up fluffy home made whipped cream, tender bread, gooey brownies or anything else your heart desires without breaking your arm from stirring. 300 watt motor makes it easy to keep up with cooking for crowds too. Plus you’ve got all of your major attachments like whisk, beater, and dough hook!

Rice Cooker/Steamer: A good rice cooker is essential in our house. Whether it’s quinoa, brown rice, coconut rice, pasta, or steamed veggies this appliance has got ya covered. 4-20 Cup capacity, digital, and even a delay start feature!

Slow Cooker: A programmable slow cooker with probe for checking your meat and a 2 cup food warmer! We love that this slow cooker can have a timer set, it’s digital, easy to clean and keeps an even temperature and correct temp while cooking.

Electric Griddle: No more taking an hour to cook pancakes on your little skillet, you can now plug in an electric griddle that goes from 200-400 degrees, has a backsplash, drip tray and is completely submersible once you remove the cord.

Can Opener Station: This is not just a can opener, you can open jars with the no slip jar grip, open mate that can slice through hard to open plastic packages, a cap opener and more. Click the link to see all of the extras that this can opener secretly carries.

Digital 4 Slice Toaster: Finally, a toaster with more than two slots and digital buttons that make it easy to get perfectly golden toast.

Waffle Maker: Not your typical waffle maker that you got for you wedding, this waffle maker takes breakfast to a whole new level. Belgian Waffles turn out big and fluffy with this turning handle appliance, plus clean up is a breeze with removable griddle plates. BOOYAH!!

Digital Iron: Ok, this isn’t cooking, but who ever wants to have to buy a new iron? Plus, I hate trying to wrap the cord so this one is retractable, and it steams up to 40% more than the leading competitor. Plus, much more if you click the link to read through.
