Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cookies are just about my favorite thing.  They take a while to bake, rotating batch after batch in the oven, but when everything is said and done it’s totally worth it.  These Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies are no exception.  They’re little comforting bites that remind you of being a kid again.  I just love them!

I could use a few cookies this week.  We’ve got something going on every night.  Drum practice, baseball game, wedding menu tasting, awards ceremony.  I could swear there’s something on Saturday, but I think I’ve blocked it from my mind.  As busy as it’s going to be there is a pseudo date night in there and super yummy food fun.  I think I’ll live.

I think I’ll bake up another batch of these cookies for my dad this week.  He’s babysitting the boys for date night, and peanut butter cookies are his favorite.  When I made these cookies, I only put chocolate chip in half to see which way I liked them better.  Even though chocolate chip cookies are my all time weakness, I preferred these cookie without the chips…but they’re good both ways.  Grab the milk and let’s have a cookie!
