  1. These are excellent. I have made these so many times need to copy another page of this. I do leave these on the cookie sheet for a minute or 2 or they fall apart.
     
  2. A great way to make cookies, & we are both fans of PB & chocolate, so this was especially nice! Shared 'em with some company we had this morning, & all agree that you have a wonderful recipe! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]
     
  3. So quick and easy and tasty also. When they were warm from the oven, they tasted like brownies. This will make a nice holiday treat. Made for 123 Tag. Another keeper!
     
  4. We all very much enjoyed these. These were so easy to put together too. Love the idea of the vanailla too. Not to much, but just enough. I agree with the other reviewers on how they are soft and chewy too. Made mine a little bigger and ended up with 42.. Made for 1-2-3 hits.
     
  5. These are a flavorful little cookie. The addition of vanilla really adds to what I'm used to with cake mix cookies. I did not have peanut butter chips but had mini peanut butter cups (baking cups) so used those. Received 50 cookies and even after 2 days they are nice and soft in texture. Great for those days I don't have a lot of time to bake! Made for the Sweet Traditions tag event Nov 2009
