No. 5: Amazing cookies

I love cookies, I am going to say that cookies are the best treat. Why? Well here are a few reasons. First, they are portable, and can be bite size. Second, they can be a vehicle for lots of chocolate, peanut butter, and many other delicious things. Third, they can be very different, crunchy, soft, gooey, crunchy/gooey, or cakey. Basically cookies are the best! With that said here is a delicious recipe that I recently made:


2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 3/4 sticks of butter
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
Chopped frozen mini Peanut butter cups!! Lots of them!

Cream butter, sugar, and eggs. Add Baking powder , soda, and salt. Add flour in increments (so you don't get a flour explosion.) Add chopped peanut butter cups. Put on baking sheet, and bake for 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees.
