My husband is a peanut butter addict. So anytime I mention making cookies other than peanut butter cookies, he pouts. This recipe has been kicking around in my book for years. It never fails me, they turn out delicious every time.

1 cup (two sticks) butter, softened
1 cup peanut butter (I used the extra crunchy kind)
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 TBSP vanilla (trust me, it makes all the difference)
1 tsp salt
1 cup peanut butter chips (or chocolate and this is optional)

Combine butter, sugars, and egg with electric mixer. Mix until smooth. Add peanut butter, mix again. Add remaining ingredients except flour and chips and mix once more. Add last two, and mix until smooth...
