Recipe
Decadent Hershey's Double Chocolate and Peanut Butter Chip Cookies
These are chocolate cookies for people who think chocolate chip cookies are a compromise. The dough itself is dark with cocoa, so the peanut butter chips become the contrast — sweet, salty pockets against a fudgy, brownie-edged crumb. The recipe turns out a generous forty-two, which sounds like a lot until you learn how quickly a warm one disappears next to a glass of cold milk.
