Andrew’s Cookies

In the absence of a good recipe, sometimes you just have to make up your own – and stick to the basics!  I came up with this recipe in junior high, I think.  I pulled from various other recipes until I found just the right mixture of ingredients to suit my taste.  These are my absolute favorite go-to cookies for any occasion!

Chocolatey, sugary, buttery goodness. Oh, and did I mention peanut butter?
