Easy 5 Ingredient Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe

Making chocolate peanut butter cookies with my niece when she was much younger is one of my favorite memories of our time together.

She would often come up and spend a week or two with me in the summer.

Those days have mostly passed due to life, but I cherish those memories.

Fortunately, these cookies have stood the test of time and are still just as good. 

And because I don’t like a lot of story telling around my recipe posts lets get straight to the good stuff.

Making Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies 

Making cookies with kids is a great introduction to baking. Yes, there may be a bit of a mess, but it’s well worth it.

This recipe in particular is a great into recipe because it has pretty limited ingredients. 

Yes, I let her crack the egg, yes it took a couple tries, it’s fine. 

Note: Before you start baking be sure everyone washes their hands. I also make sure a kitchen towel is nearby to wipe hands on during the process, otherwise it usually gets wiped on clothes.
