I’ve been on a cookie kick lately and I’m NOT mad about it. I love making cookies, but to be honest, I was not always great at baking cookies.
I remember plenty of times where I either forgot some ingredients (most likely becuase I wasn’t checking to make sure I added every ingredient aka blind pride haha), or I baked them too long and the bottoms got burnt.
But by the grace of God, I’ve been on a cookie roll and all the cookie recipes I’ve been making have been turning out great!
I love sweet and salty flavors together, so it was only a matter of time before I made these cookies.
Pretzels and peanut butter are a match made in heaven (mmmm pretzels dipped right in a jar of PB is to-die-for), and chocolate only adds positive vibes to the combo. We’ve made granola bars, chocolate bark, ice cream, and fudge with this famous combo, it was only a matter of time until we made cookies!
These cookies are way too easy to not make. You only need 6 ingredients to make them and I bet 90% of you have these ingredients in your house right now.
