Peanut butter & choc chunk cookies aka the most delicious cookies ever

Knowing myself and my teenagers well, I choose not to have sweet treats in the house. This means I either have to drive somewhere to buy them or make something from what I have laying around in the kitchen. Yesterday I was lazing around trawling through pintrest (as you do) looking at all the delicious recipe's that were begging me to make them when I came across this tasty looking cookie recipe from Bakerella. Um YUM! My taste buds were tingling at the thought of a yummy little treat for afternoon tea. Being a Sunday the last thing I felt like doing was going grocery shopping so I looked through the pantry & adjusted the recipe to suit what I had on hand.

Thank goodness I am at work today & not home to make my way through the entire batch! The teenage boy will be home in the afternoon & ensure will that I do not need to worry about over eating! If you do not have a teenage boy I recommend cooking half the batch & freezing the other half in preparation of your next craving!
