The name is a mouthful but so is this cookie!
PB&B Chocolate Chunk Cookies!
In less than 30 minutes you too can have fresh hot out of the oven Peanut Butter and Banana Chocolate Chunk Cookies!
Chunky, cake-y, chewy, gooey, chocolate-peanut buttery, lightly salted cookies that will knock your socks off!
These cookies are definitely of the “soft batch” variety so if you like super soft cookies these are surely for you!
No video for this one since these PB&B Chocolate Chunk Cookies are so easy to make!
And while I am using an electric miser to cream the butter and sugars you can honestly do it all by hand!

Notes for Success:
For the most uniform cookies it is best to use a cookie scooper, I am using a 2 ounce scoop for mine
Making these cookies even lower in sugar is so easy by substituting your favorite granulated form of diabetic friendly sugar!
For me it is monk fruit sugar for the best results!

Notes
Cookies will stay fresh for up to 1 week in an airtight container at room temperature covered.
These cookies re definitely of the "soft batch" variety and they will get softer as they sit.
They remind me of Whoopie Pies or Banana Cake Cookies
These look really good. One question is it 1/4 cup sugar or 1/2 cup? You mentioned 1/4 cup in the above notes and 1/2 cup in the ingredient list. Thanks
The recipe is correct as it is written. What I tried to convey is that: I’ve been trying to cut some of the sugar out of my baking lately, so I decide to use ¼ cup of Stevia in place of the ¼ cup of the granulated sugar from recipe with great results
Delicious cookies! I used whole wheat flour and flax meal, which worked out really well.
Can I freeze these?
Donna, how much flax meal??
