Chocolate and Peanut Butter Chip Pretzel Cookies

I've made these so many times in the past couple of weeks because they are so good!  My kids and husband love pretzels so we often have them in the house. In fact we buy them by the tub for now we need even more then before because of my obsession with these cookies!  I would suggest making sure you have some hidden or you won't get any.


Recipe: Chocolate & Peanut Butter Chip Pretzel Cookies
Makes 48 cookies

 

Ingredients:

3 cups of all purpose flour
1 tsp. of salt
1/2 tsp. of baking soda
1 cup of butter at room temperature
1 cup of tightly packed light brown sugar
2/3 cup of granulated sugar
2 egg (beaten)
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter chips
1 cup broken up pretzel pieces
Pretzel Salt or Sea Salt

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2. In a larger bowl, beat the butter and sugars together on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). On low speed, slowly add the beaten eggs and vanilla extract. Beat to combine, scrape down the sides of the bowl.
3. Add the flour mixture and beat just until there are no more streaks of flour. Stir in the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and pretzels.
4. Preheat the oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop out well rounded tablespoonfuls of the dough and sprinkle with pretzel salt. Leave about 2 inches between each ball. Bake for 10 minutes. If you prefer crispier cookies increase the baking time by 1-2 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before removing.

Note: One time I had a few toffee pieces left over and I dumped them in, fabulous.
