Cookie of the Month :: Toffee-Pretzel Peanut Butter Cookies

A few weeks ago my older kids were over at Grandma's while she baked cookies and they informed her that I never bake cookies from scratch.  Now never might be a bit strong but I realized I rarely bake so this year I decided I'll make homemade cookies once a month.

Martha's not the only one who can have a Cookie of the Month, right?

This month I broke out the parchment paper and made Flourless Toffee-Pretzel Peanut Butter Cookies ... a recipe from Real Simple.

The verdict from the kids?  Delicious!



Toffee-Pretzel Peanut Butter Cookies
Makes 42

2 cups creamy peanut butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup broken salted pretzels
1 cup chopped chocolate-covered toffee bar

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.  In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, sugars, eggs, baking soda, and salt until smooth.

Fold in pretzels and toffee bar pieces.

Shape the dough into balls (about 1 heaping tablespoon each) and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.  Using the tines of a fork, flatten each ball, creating a crisscross pattern.

Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until puffed and golden, 10 to 12 minutes (the cookies will deflate as they cool).  Let cool slightly on the baking sheets, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
