    Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies are loaded with peanut butter and white chocolate chips, chewy oatmeal, and oh so delicious!

    Y'all cookie week is everything and I am here for it! Chewy peanut butter butterfinger cookies have been a huge hit so we are continuing with the peanut butter theme! I LOVE peanut butter cookies and I LOVE white chocolate, so we are putting two of my favorite flavors in a sweet chewy cookie I know you will love! These are perfect for all the Christmas cookies exchanged this time of year, but also can be enjoyed all year round - which I highly recommend!

    How to Make

    1. In a stand mixer, cream your butter and sugars.
    2. Add in your egg and mix until just combined - being careful not to over-mix.
    3. Next, add your flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix for a minute or so. You want some flour streaks still in the dough. Add in the peanut butter and white chocolate chips and finish mixing until it just comes together.
    4. Using a cookie scoop,  scoop out the dough onto a lined baking sheet and chill for at least 30 minutes.
    5. Place 12 cookie dough balls on a baking sheet and place in a 350-degree preheated oven for 10 minutes.
    6. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

    "These are fabulous! So glad I decided to try these, even with no reviews posted. They turned out to be one of my favorite cookies, and hubby agrees."

    How to Freeze

    • Make the entire batch of cookies and scoop them out into balls on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 20 minutes until the cookie dough balls are firm, and transfer them to a freezer-safe zip-top. Keep for up to 4 months or a year if vacuum sealed.
    • To bake, bake at 350 for 11-12 minutes straight from the freezer. Bake as many or as few as you want and always have fresh cookie dough on hand!

    Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies are so rich and delicious with a chewy center and melty bites of white chocolate and peanut butter. You will love them!
