Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies + Giveaway

What's better than a plain, normal, everyday chocolate chip cookie? A chocolate chip cookie that has peanut butter inside the chocolate chips. I know, we're talking about crazy, revolutionary, out this world things right now, but I wouldn't lie to you about these kinds of things. They exist, they're real, and they're delicious. They also go by the formal name of Nestle Tollhouse DelightFulls, and come in two other flavors, cherry, and caramel, and can be found at your local grocery store. 

Because I have my priorities in line, and because I've been in our new house for a total of 32ish hours, I thought, why not christen the new kitchen with a fresh batch of cookies even though the rest of our house is in shambles and boxes. Leave it to blogging and what not to force you to get your house put together in a fast-ish manner so you can get some work done right?

I didn't do anything to crazy with this cookie recipe, I simply swapped out the regular chocolate chips in my normal chocolate chip cookie recipe, for these Nestle Tollhouse DelightFulls, and was more than happy with the outcome. Derek didn't complain one bit about it either! Now that our house smells like fresh baked cookies, and there are tiny children laughing, and screaming inside of it, it's really starting to feel like home!

Because I love you guys, and because I want you to expedience the deliciousness of Nestle Tollhouse DelightFulls, I'm going to be doing $15 Paypal cash giveaway so you can experience the deliciousness of these chocolate chips! Giveaway will run through April 4, 2015 at 11:59PM. You can use the Rafflecopter below to enter!

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp hot water

Preheat oven to 350°. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars. Add in the egg, mix until combined, and then the vanilla. Dissolve the baking soda into the hot water and then add it to the mixture. Mix in the flour until just combined, and then add the chocolate chips. Place cookies 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet, using a rounded tablespoon scoop and rolling into balls. Bake for 10-13 minutes until golden brown. Mine took about 12 in my oven. Cool on pan for 2 minutes before transferring to wire rack.
