The 12 Days of Cookies and Cocktails

Truth, I am writing this post in Cambodia right now and finding really hard to switch from hiking all over ancient temples with really awesome children to writing about these delicious cookies waiting for me at home…. With that in mind…

There is nothing more classic than the peanut butter chocolate combo. When you are whipping out the holiday baking list, I love to make sure there is a variety, just in case you know a person who has allergies, or just doesn’t like cinnamon or jam in their cookie choices. But if you do like peanut butter and chocolate…. these are the cookies for you. Peanut Butter Cookies with Chocolate Chunks. Grab a glass of milk. Tell Santa to take a seat. These perfect cookies are on the top of the list for me.

Pro tip :: I tried rolling and freezing the dough before baking. I rolled the cookie dough into a log, in wax paper, wrapped and tied off the edges then let it freeze. I sliced and baked. The cookies expanded a little more than I would have liked, but they still turned out pretty tasty.
