Peanut butter is my weakness. I'm not kidding , I could eat a few teaspoons a day! Before the jar got finished, I decided to make these cookies for the husband to snack when he has to eat dinner late.
I kept these in the freezer and each morning I thaw 2 pcs. for him for his afternoon snack. This way, the cookie softens in the centre.

- In the bowl of an electric mixer cream butter and brown sugar for 3 minutes. Add in egg, vanilla and peanut butter, mix for another 2 minutes. Add in flour mixture and fold in chocolate chunks. Chill dough for 1 hour then preheat oven to 350˙F/180˙c/Gas 4 and line a baking sheet with baking sheet.
