Chubby-Chunk Double Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

These are a must have in our house!!   They don't last long that is for sure!!   We have been making these for Santa since Emillie was little.  He loves them so much he even has to take some home to Mrs. Claus!!

1/2 cup  butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cups  packed brown sugar
2 eggs
3/4 granulated sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
1 cup peanut butter
1 package chocolate chips (or any combination of peanut butter/white/etc chips)

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease cookie sheets or spray with cooking spray. Cream butter and sugars in a large bowl until blended.  Add eggs, baking soda and vanilla. Mix until well blended. Add flour, peanut butter and chips. Drop dough onto cookie sheets. Press cookies down slightly to flatten. Bake 12 minutes (dough will appear underdone).  Do not over bake!  Remove from oven and leave on cookie sheet for one minute. Remove to wire racks or opened up brown paper grocery bags too cool.   Makes about 3 dozen
