Sometimes, it doesn't take until the end of the cooking time to know you are onto a winner.
In fact, when Laura posted about baking peanut butter and choc chip cookies, I was salivating before I'd even turned away from the screen. And the bowl lick test showed very positive signs.
One half-batch later?
Cookie heaven.
I used the Hummingbird Bakery recipeLaura pointed me to here, halved (with extra choc chips though). On the grounds that you can seldom have too much of a good thing.
I've just hit the print button...
Thank you Laura and Ali. Jx

...and now I really feel like I need to make another batch. Even the uncooked dough was a treat.

I, on the other hand, wasn't inspired to cook at all. We had meatballs and chips for dinner. ehm ehm.... shhhhh

Eek, I'm supposed to be on a diet ... you've done for me now!

So why did I find this on the first day of the 2 day diet? This is going to be torture! Still, I am allowed milk so perhaps I can pretend the cookies. Mmmmm.

they sound awfully good Ali, I'm off to dig in the cupboard for the jar of peanut butter that I'm sure is lurking at the back!

I'm suspicious of peanut butter in biscuits. I'm sure you're right, though.

Perfect! Cookies on jar just run out and those bunch of munchies makes me crave to have my cookie jar filled with those.
