my sister's peanut butter chocolate chip cookies

I like to make these with almond butter and dark chocolate chips.

•2/3 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)

•1 cup unsalted butter

•1 cup brown sugar

•1 cup sugar

•2 eggs

•2 teaspoons vanilla

•2 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

•1 teaspoon salt

•1 teaspoon baking soda

•1 pound milk chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips)

Cream together sugars, nut butter, and butter and then add the eggs and vanilla.  Stir to combine.  In a separate bowl mix the flour, baking soda, and salt.  Combine the wet and dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed.  Stir in the chocolate chips until just combined.  Roll into 1 1/2" balls and place on ungreased baking sheet.  Bake for 8-10 minutes in 375 degree oven.  Do not overbake.  Allow cookies to sit on pan for 1 minute before removing to cooling rack.
