Cookie Corner: Decadent Peanut Butter Cookies

So those of you who know me and know my baking have heard of or tasted my cookies! They are famous and much requested! When I was home a few weeks ago, I made a batch for my brother, but being in England, I did not have all the candy and things I usually put in my cookies, so I decided to go a more gourmet route! The result was delicious- these cookies had the perfect consistency and the perfect ratio of peanut butter and chocolate! This is a great recipe any time you want a more sophisticated cookie! If you are not a peanut butter fan, they are great as normal chocolate chip cookies as well!!
Ingredients:
2 c cake flour
2 c Premium Dark Chocolate chunks (or a bar cut into chunks which is what I ended up doing)
1/2 c Earth Balance soy butter spread softened
4 tbsp Peanut Butter ( I use Skippy Natural)
1/2 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
2 eggs ( I used 2 egg whites and 1 egg)

Combine eggs, sugars, and butter in a bowl- mixing until smooth. Then combine flour and baking soda cup by cup. Once this is smooth, beat in peanut butter and chocolate chunks.
Place balls of dough on baking sheet and bake for about 10 min at 350 F.

Let cool and serve!
Enjoy!

Welcome Food lovers!

Hello all!
So I decided to start this blog because I LOVE food, and I LOVE to cook so I thought what better way to share my love of all of this than to do it on a blog!
I know that it can be hard to eat the foods you love without feeling guilty, or like you have to excercize 12 hours a day! I have felt the same way, and have come up with and found recipes to slim down fatty favorites and make you feel like you aren't dieting or watching your food while enjoying meals and feeling great!!
I hope you enjoy!!
