Triple Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cookies

Hi there. It’s Kathi from Deliciously Yum and I couldn’t be more excited to share today’s recipe with you. While I enjoy creating wonderful meals for my family to eat, I am extremely passionate about baking. Whether we’re talking about making cinnamon rolls from scratch, whipping up some mouthwatering breakfast concoctions like muffins, or preparing quick no-bake treats, I adore it all.

But nothing compares to my cookie obsession. I usually gravitate toward a slightly crispy exterior with a soft and chewy inside. And lots and lots of flavor, of course.

Since chocolate and peanut butter make for one incredible pair, there was no doubt in my mind that they would create one of my favorite cookies to date.
