Chocolate Chip Cookies
On a whim I decided to make some chocolate chip cookies. But it was taking f.o.r.e.v.e.r because I made them so large. They were totally worth the wait. They are very soft but don't have the over powering butter taste that soft cookies can sometimes have. I found the recipe on allrecipes and will be keeping it as our standby recipe.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip & Cranberry Cookies
Mmmm cookies. Joe hates dried cranberries so I had to make this recipe into two batches. One with the yumminess that is cranberries and one that is boring and just has chocolate chips. It turns out I am not a fan of chocolate chips in oatmeal cookies. So next time I will have to make 2 completely separate batches.
This recipe is from the Quaker website.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
Mmmmm sooo good. After a case of a "missing" chocolate mint bar I had to come up with something else to do with this dough and what goes better than peanut butter and chocolate. Not much!
Pepper added by Joey - this is a dumb question
Ingredients
3/4 cup margarine
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
2 tablespoons water
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1. In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the sugar, butter and water, stirring occasionally until melted.
2. Remove from heat, stir in the chocolate chips until melted and set aside to cool for 10 minutes. 3. Pour the chocolate mixture into a large bowl, and beat in the eggs, one at a time.
4. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt, stir into the chocolate mixture.
5. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour.
6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
7. Grease cookie sheets. Roll cookie dough into walnut sized balls and place 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
8. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, be careful not to overbake.
9. When cookies come out of the oven, allow to sit for 1 minute and then spoon a dab of peanut butter on top. Allow to melt slightly and swirl with the knife to coat the top of the cookie.
10. Place cookies in the fridge to allow the peanut butter to harden slightly.
11. Remove from fridge and enjoy!

Peanut Butter Cookies
I was craving something sweet but didn't have the correct ingredients to make brownies, chocolate chip cookies etc. etc. So I decided to make some peanut butter cookies.
TIP - If you want them to be a bit more chewy only cook them for about 12 minutes. They will be really soft when you take them out of the oven but they will harden up a bit as they cool.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, margarine, brown sugar and white sugar.
3. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
4. Combine the flour, baking powder and baking soda; stir into the peanut butter mixture.
5. Form dough into walnut sized balls and place them 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
6. Dip a fork into flour and criss cross each cookie to flatten slightly.
7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until just lightly browned.
8. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
