Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In large mixing bowl, or kitchen aid bowl with paddle attachment, mix together the butter, peanut butter, and sugars until creamy. Add in the egg and vanilla and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir into the peanut butter mixture until combined. Add the oatmeal and peanut butter chips and stir until incorporated together.
Drop by tablespoons (I use a small cookie scoop) onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 8-12 minutes (8 minutes is the suggested time in the AR recipe, but I had to bake mine for 12 minutes or they would have been under cooked for me). Cool on cookie rack. Store in airtight container.

Notes

Note: day of baking the cookies are slightly chewy on the inside, however, after sitting for a day they got crunchier. Even Grumpy didn't mind this and he doesn't care for crunchy cookies!
