If this week had a theme it would be COOKIES! I am officially on a sugar-induced high permanently! And I don't mind one bit!
Thursday evening I attended a cookie swap with some local bloggers. It was a wonderful event and thank you so much to Brittany for hosting! (Photo credit to Brittany as well!)
I left the party with a lot of loot, and a bunch of photos!
My contribution were these Salted Pretzel Chocolate and Peanut Butter Chip Cookies!
They are delicious!
Salted Pretzel Chocolate and Peanut Butter Chip Cookies
makes 3 dozen
These cookies play on the traditional Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe with a twist...a pretzel twist that is! Adding peanut butter chips and pretzels plays on the popular sweet-and-salty flavor combination. The cookie remains soft and chewy on the inside and just a little crispy outside. Make sure not to over bake as these continue to cook on the tray after removing from the oven.
