My Aunt's Peanut Butter Cookies


 I have a 'thing' for peanut butter right now, and was excited to try out these peanut butter chips. I decided to make some soft cookies with them. Easy to make, and tastiest fresh out of the oven!



225g/8oz butter
240g/12oz sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg and 1 egg yolk
425g/15oz self-raising flour
50g chocolate chips (we used white)
50g peanut butter chips


 
Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas 5. Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl.



Mix in the egg and extra yolk until creamy


Next step is to add the chocolate and peanut chips and the flour,
and mix together to create a soft dough.


Take about a tablespoons worth of dough and roll it
into a ball. 


 Place 2 inches apart on the baking tray. Press down slightly
with the back of a fork. Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Leave to cool for 5 minutes on the tray before transferring to
a cooling rack.


Enjoy!!!!!
