Introduction

What makes these better? Peanut butter that's nothing but peanuts (no sweetener, no salt), a little extra egg & chocolate chips, and baking powder. They come darker than the regular flourless PB cookies, with a more peanutty/brown sugar taste. What makes these better?

Ingredients

    1.5 cups natural unsweetened peanut butter (think Crazy Richard's)
    1.75 cups firmly pack light brown sugar (If you use regular peanut butter, use 1.5 cups sugar)
    2 large whole eggs (don't substitute egg whites--the yolks make the cookies puff up)
    3/4 tsp baking soda
    1.25 tsp baking powder
    1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Mix all but chips together until smooth. Fold in chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets (I do tablespoonfuls and get about 42 2-inch cookies).

Bake for about 9-10 minutes, until the cookies puff up and brown. They will be very soft. Take out of oven and let them cool on sheets for 5 minutes, then scrape them off with a spatula and let them finish cooling (they'll harden).
