HOW TO MAKE PERFECT CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
- Make sure that you have enough flour in the dough. If the dough is too sticky, you may need to add a little bit of flour.
- Do not melt the butter! The butter needs to be softened (at room temperature), but using melted butter will ruin the cookies.
- Spend a little extra time when you mix the butter and sugars. Creaming them together for 2-3 minutes will improve the consistency of your cookies.
- Preheat the oven. This will help your cookies turn out right every time!
- Use a cookie scoop! If you want all your cookies to be perfectly shaped and have them all be the same size, a cookie scoop is the way to go.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Doing this will make it really easy to remove the cookies from your cookie sheet so that you don’t have to scrape them off the pan – they will just slide right off in perfect shape!

The weather this fall has been amazing in Southern Utah. It’s the week before Thanksgiving and it’s been in the seventies! Little Miss B and I have been going on lots of bike rides – she absolutely loves it and it’s a great little workout. A little bit awkward having her in a seat on the front of my bike, but I’m getting used to having my legs in a bit of a strange position. It’s definitely worth it to be able to get some exercise and entertain the baby all at the same time!
