COOKING: Chewy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are really chewy and addictive.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup peanut butter

2 cups packed brown sugar

1 cup white sugar

4 eggs

1/4 cup light corn syrup

1/4 cup water

1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

5 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

4 cups chopped semisweet chocolate

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the corn syrup, water, and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the peanut butter mixture. Fold in chocolate chunks. Drop by 1/4 cupfuls 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.

Bake for 12 to 14 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are golden. Allow cookies to cool for 1 minute on the cookie sheet before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
