The Food: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Head to your local scoop shop or freezer section, browse, buy, return home, then pop these bad boys in your toaster oven to get the chocolate nice and melty. Serve with a scoop of ice cream, and a rocks glass of brown drink. That, my friends, is how you end a day!
I'm a real sucker for Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams, especially in combination with a homemade hot cookie, so here are some ice cream pairing recommendations from my heart to yours...
Try Hot Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies with:- Salted Peanut Butter with Chocolate Flecks (inspired by Buckeye cookies)
- Middle West Whiskey & Pecans
- Brown Butter Almond Brittle
- Blackout Chocolate Cake
Of course, you can also enjoy your peanut butter chocolate chunk cookies with a mug of coffee. Afternoon cookies are a true treat.
