Whole Wheat PB Cookies

I am absolutely addicted to peanut butter. It is the most fantastic thing in the world! I think I would have a mental breakdown if I didn't get my spoonful of peanut butter in every day. These cookies are a little bit of a cheat, but it was one of those days when I have the overwhelming craving for a cookie.

Cookies are my other favorite food in the whole wide world, as Mom can attest. I can down at least four cookies in one sitting, and then come back ten minutes later! Oh gosh, I think I'm going to need a cookie...
