TWD: Chunky Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Chipsters

TWD: Sugar, Spice and everything Nice!!!

And finally i'm back in action with TWD this week after sitting it out the previous two times. Firstly with the granola grabbers cause i couldn't get my hands on granola here.. argh. and then the next week i sat out the torte cause.. hmph.. icecream and chocolate ganache ain't exactly my thing. woops. sounds like a downright ugly excuse. but pardon me, lazy bones at work. Still i raved and drooled at the other creations by the TWD bakers. How contradictory..

So with this week's choice of Chunky Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Chocolate Chipsters by Stefany of Proceed with Caution, i decided to take the leap and bake these little beauties.. and as promised.. they were wonderful.. no... the best!!!

chewy to the maximum with a slight hint of peanut butter. I added some chopped toasted peanuts in the batter as well to add even more crunch to the end product. *Yummy*. and opted for the chocolate chips instead of the chopped chocolate chunks, saw it as a good opportunity to use up the giant bag of chips sitting in my drawer.

the verdict: Everyone loved it! and so did i of course. Presumably, i was fortunate to be with a group of people that enjoyed chewy cookies relative to the crunchy ones that more marketable here in Singapore. *phew*. glad it went down well!

interested in the recipe? pls head down to
Stefany's site for the recipe. Or refer to the TWD blogroll on my sidelink bar for more views of wonderful cookies! you just can't get enough! (speaking of which.. i think my mum ate all but two cookies left in the jar!?!?! ARGHs...)

  4. Oooh -- your photography is truly AMAZING! I just want to jump into the screen and grab your cookies. And I am so jealous that you got chewy cookies -- mine were crispy, and I think that was part of the problem with mine. Great job!
