Those looks so yummy!
I need to try, thanks for the recipe 🙂
They are crazy good! Enjoy!!!
I made these cookies today. I was not sure what chocolate chunks to use. I used the chocolate baking bar. It did not make the cookie very sweet. Was that the correct chocolate chunks? They were very good but not to sweet.
I find my chocolate chunks in the baking aisle next to the chocolate chips, they are just a bigger version of chocolate chips and would be a much better (and sweeter) replacement then baking chocolate which has no or very little sugar. If you cannot find chocolate chunks just buy a large chocolate bar (like Hershey’s) and use that! But yes, just do not use baking chocolate! 🙂
Maggie, these look absolutely amazing! Two times the peanut butter and with chocolate, who can keep their resolutions with these around?! Totally saving this!
