Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies

June 5, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 26 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I have a recipe to help you get through that mid-week hump!  This cookie are simply amazing!!!!  So amazing that I only ate two, because my Husband took them ALL to work by mistake.  He thought they were his weekly chocolate chip cookies.  I get a text when I was at work and he said, hey Hun, the cookies you made are really good, but I think I may have taken the wrong ones.  These taste like peanut butter!  Ugh….  My facial expression changed, my heart sunk and I was stuck at work.  I panicked and said yes your cookies are in the freezer.   He said, sorry, but these are really good.  All I thought was he probably only took like 5 or 6 cookies, so I skipped my workout to run home for cookies, only to find the bag was gone.  THE WHOLE BAG!!!!!!!!!  Gosh darn it he took them all.  Now he and his Friends are eating MY cookies!!  Then to top it off, I asked so did you eat all the cookies, he replied nope, I still left some on my tool box.  What the heck!  He had leftover cookies and didn’t even bring them back home.  I was so sad!!!  So sad!!!  I would have made more but I didn’t have all the ingredients!  🙁  But they shall be made again!!

Peanut Butter and Pretzel Cookies

Lucky for me, the memories will last with the pictures I am posting.  By the way these are Peanut Butter Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookies!  I got the recipe for these cookies from Michelle from Brown Eyed Baker.  She posted them last week, and when I saw them, I knew I must have them in my belly!!!   Big thank you to Michelle for giving me permission to share her recipe with you.  These cookies are one of the best!    Nothing beats salty pretzels and peanut butter, oh baby!!!

Peanut Butter and Pretzel Cookies


You know how I LOVE peanut butter and pretzels together from recipes like my Chocolate Pretzel Almond Chickapea Balls.

Loving my balls!

Or my Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Balls….

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Balls

And my Honey Roasted Pretzel Peanut Butter.  Yum!!

Honey Roasted Pretzel Peanut Butter

Michelle’s cookies are soft, sweet, chocolaty and best of all peanut buttery!  The pretzels added to the cookies give a nice texture plus a nice hint of saltiness.   I did change-up Michelle’s recipe just a bit, only by exchanging the shortening for butter and adding only 1 cup of brown sugar instead of 1 1/4 cups, but the rest is the same.  Because I didn’t use shortening in the cookies, my cookies are a bit more soft.  Michelle said to roll the cookies, but my dough was pretty soft, so I just scooped it with my cookie scoop.  I did ask my Husband how they held up and said great.  For a man who doesn’t like peanut butter, he certainly loved these cookies!  Darn him!!

  3. In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, peanut butter, butter, milk and vanilla extract. Beat at medium speed until well blended. Add the egg and beat just until blended. Reduce speed to low and add the flour mixture gradually, mixing just until combined. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate chips.

Peanut Butter and Pretzel Cookies

I know these cookies are not my normally way healthy cookie that I normally make, but the stats are better than I thought they would be and it’s good to treat yourself every once in a while.  Oh and I made these cookies pretty big too!  I filled my cookie scoop to the rim with batter, you could always make them smaller.

I know you probably all know Michelle’s blog “Browned Eyed Baker”, but if you don’t, you should really check it out!  Her recipes are all amazing and in case you didn’t know, I also made her Cherry Coke Cupcakes for Little Jenny’s birthday.  They were a hit, but I wasn’t surprised.

Have a great day everyone!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    I love adding crushes pretzels to my desserts. I’m definitely a fan of the salty/sweet combo and the crunch that pretzels add. And I’m surprised at the nutrition facts for these cookies too! Definitely pinning these to make very soon. 🙂

    I would have been so ticked if my hubs took my beloved cookies! I don’t think they fully appreciate it like we do, either. To them, it’s just … a cookie. To us, it’s like, the reason for living. Lol You know what I mean. But like you said, you can always make more. And Michelle does have some great recipes and I had forgotten about these. Thanks for the reminder!

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….
💖
My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.

What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.

Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
