Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies – Healthier

June 20, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 10 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I have yet another Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookie recipe for you.  A couple of weeks ago I made PB CC Pretzel Cookies, but my Husband took them all and I was sad and craving them.  I just love the combination of peanut butter and pretzels, and of course chocolate.  So this past weekend I whipped up a healthier version of the original recipe.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies

These cookies aren’t only healthier, but they are also gluten-free.  I had a bag of Glutino Gluten Free Pretzels that Udi’s Gluten Free sent me, and I thought the pretzels would be good in these cookies.  I was right!  I never had these kind of pretzels before and let me tell you they are crunchy, super crunchy!  I don’t think I ever had a pretzel with such a crunch!  I like them!  I also really, really like them in these cookies.  When I take a bite of the cookie, I actually still get a nice crunch sound, so they are soooo perfect for recipes that you bake pretzels in.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies


This recipe is based on my 3 ingredient peanut butter cookies, but just using 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg and then I mixed in some mini chocolate chips and of course pretzels.  These cookies are mighty delish!  They are crunchy and chewy, and perfect for freezing.  As you can tell I really love freezing my cookies.  Not only do they stay fresh longer, but they are out of sight, so I don’t keep eating them!  Though I did have my fair share of them.  Probably to many of them.  Thank goodness this recipe only makes 32 cookies.  32 thick, delicious, chocolaty, peanut buttery cookies.  I am sooooooo drooling right now.  Must be good, must finish my post before I reach for a cookie!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies

When baking these cookies, I did find they were a little soft, but don’t worry they do harden up a bit once they cooled.  I also found the batter to be a little crumbly, however that really doesn’t matter.  Just grab some of the batter and squeeze and mold into a dough ball.  I gently pressed the cookies down with my fork to make the traditional peanut butter cookie crisscross, but don’t press to hard, you don’t want the cookie to crumble.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies

I don’t know what it is, but I have been on a major peanut butter kick.  I tend to go through this every few months.  It’s like I can’t get enough of it!!!  But I am sure peanut butter lovers understand that!!  Darn that Peanut Butter, why must I love you so much?

Dam, now I need to make another PB recipe!  🙂

Well my Friends have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Love that you’re on a major PB kick. After writing a book about it, you’d think I’d be sick of it, but I’m not! I love it still! And these cookies look so dense, moist, soft and full of PB flavor!

    Could you just make these raw? Do you have to cook them?

      I’d cook them because they have egg in them!! Though you could skip the egg and roll them into balls, maybe add a pinch of flour to it to make it more firm.

Happy Thursday! A couple weeks ago I was inspired Happy Thursday! A couple weeks ago I was inspired to clean under my kitchen sink from my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs. Let me tell you I couldn’t be happier.
🧽
When I opened my cabinets, everything fell out. I had like 10 million Target bags jammed in the back, sponges everywhere and 1/2 empty bottles of cleaners.
🧽
I measured my space in the cabinet and was lucky enough that the items Claire purchased for her under the sink were the exact fit for my cabinet. 
🧽
The drawers are a game changer. Highly, highly recommend the drawers. I filled them with sponges, and dishwasher tabs. Now they are not lost and easy to grab. 
🧽
The storage bins were purchased on Amazon. Check out Claire’s Instagram page for links.
🧽
Is your under the sink organized?

❤️
I wanted to share with you my wall in my dining room that I decked out for Valentines Day. I felt that I needed to add some flair to go around my sign from @krumpetshomedecor. I bought  the tissue paper hangings from Amazon. So much fun!
❤️
Sully is my little ham. He saw me taking photos and went over and had to pose. He sure loves the camera. 😂
❤️
The sign and most of the decor on the table is from Krumpets Home Decor. I have a 10% discount code: PBANDP. Link in my bio. As an fyi, Krumpets Home Decor also ships to Canada.
❤️
Have a beautiful day.

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?
