Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe is the original Nestlé Toll House chocolate chip cookie recipe with peanut butter and chocolate chips. They were excellent!

2 1/4 C. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 C. butter or margarine (softened)
3/4 C. sugar
3/4 C. packed brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 pkg. (11 oz.) Nestlé Toll House peanut butter & chocolate chips
1 C. chopped nuts (I didn’t use these)

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

VARIATION
