I love peanut butter. I also love cookies. However, I admit that peanut butter cookies aren’t always my first choice. These cookies might just change my mind though! Big peanut butter flavor with crisp edges, chewy centers, and toffee bits – umm, can I have another one or two or three?? 😉 Yeah, they’re that good. I promise. I hadn’t thought about pairing heath with peanut butter before but it is definitely a winner. I think I’ll have to experiment with this flavor combo some more…maybe cupcakes? =) Enjoy!
