Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

You may recall that I am completely obsessed with Peanut Butter & Co's White Chocolate Wonderful peanut butter. It makes everything so delicious. It is soooo dreamy to bake with.

So here is my ultimate cookie tribute to White Chocolate Wonderful, which I really believe will be the most valuable trade item in a post-apocalyptic Terminator-style future. Buy lots of this stuff for your bomb shelter or secret Skynet-proof cave. And if you need to up the ante, whip up some of these suckers in your solar oven, or whatever.

White Chocolate Wonderful Peanut Butter Cookies With Chocolate Chips

1/3 cup peanut butter - preferably White Chocolate Wonderful, but you can use any ol' kind.

1/3 cup almond butter

1/3 cup margarine

1/3 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup white (vegan, duh) sugar

1 ½ teaspoons Ener-G Egg Substitute

2 tablespoons water

2 tablespoons soymilk

1 teaspoon flaxseed meal

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Just a pinch (1/8 teaspoon) kosher salt or sea salt

1 cup chocolate chips (I love the Tropical Source ones)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F, and line your cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix water and egg replacer together in a small bowl, set aside.
3. In big mixing bowl cream together peanut butter, almond butter, sugars and margarine.
4. Mix in soy milk, egg replacer, flaxseed meal, and vanilla.
5. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into mixture. The dough will be moist, but don't worry!
   
6. Stir in chips! Mix'em up and then start rolling spoonfuls of dough into balls, then flatten slightly on parchment paper.
7. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto cookie sheet.
8. Bake for 8 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are lightly browned, but center is still a bit soft, as it will harden as cookies cool. In my unspeakably dreadful, unpredictable oven, these took 14 minutes and came out beautifully.

The IC says that I should've doubled the recipe. He took some photos, too. I like this one, which looks like the cookie is hovering in space:

These deliver everything I want in a cookie. They have crispy edges. They have chewy centers. The chocolate chips are melty. The peanut butteriness is pitch-perfect. It's been a long journey to find a good recipe for these! But these are pretty dang good. So good, I'm going to go and eat a couple more of them. Yummy.
