Valentine's Day Peanut Butter Cookies


I love peanut butter cookies!   I don't know what it is about them, but I do.  And add chocolate to them?  Oh man!  Normally I'll add a Resses Peanut Butter Cups to the tops or chocolate chips to the batter.  But when I saw this cute idea on Pinterest, I decided to make these.  Perfect for Valentine's Day!

I love Valentine chocolate.  There's just something about heart shaped goodness!


Aren't they so cute?!?!

I went to Six Sister's Stuff to make their Peanut Butter Cookies recipe.  They said this was their favorite cookie of all time.  =o)  How could I not try it?!

Peanut Butter Cookies

* 1 3/4 cup flour
* 1/2 tsp. salt
* 1 tsp. baking soda
* 1/2 cup butter, softened
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 1/2 cup peanut butter
* 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
* 1 egg
* 1 tsp. vanilla
* 2 Tbsp. milk
* chocolates for the top

In a mixer, beat butter, sugar, peanut butter and brown sugar until fluffy.  Beat in egg and vanilla.  Add milk.  Add flour, baking soda and salt and mix well.

Shape into 40 1 inch balls.  Bake for 7-8 minutes in a 375 degree oven.


As soon as you remove them from the oven, place a chocolate on top.


Remove cookies to a wire cooling rack and cool.


Store in an airtight container (if they last that long).  They are delicious!!!

I made cookies similar to these. I topped them with Dove hearts which were delicious. But I like the variety you used--how about snicker hearts?? Yummy!

Um, yum. Anything with peanut butter and candy is a score in my book! I'll be featuring these on my blog tomorrow.
