Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk cookies are filled with chopped milk chocolate Hershey Bars, Oatmeal and Peanut Butter goodness.  One of my family's favorite cookies!

These cookies are quite possibly the best mixture of peanut butter and chocolate in a cookie that I have ever tasted.

The half cup of oatmeal adds a texture that complements the peanut butter and chocolate perfectly.

Chocolate chunks as opposed to chocolate chips make all the difference.  Its fun to chop up a chocolate bar and the freshly cut chocolate adds a boost of freshness that you just cannot achieve with chocolate chips.

Tips for these peanut butter chocolate chunk cookies:

  1. Do not overmix.  You want the dough to be light, not sticky.
  2. I used 4 regular sized Hershey milk chocolate bars chopped for the dough and an extra bar to put a square of chocolate on about half of the cookies.  The kids asked that I put the square on all of the cookies next time.  It really is good having a melting piece of chocolate on top of the cookie.

I would also recommend doubling this recipe.  My family of five cleared out the cookie jar in two days.

Enjoy! 🙂
