Chunky Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1/2 t cinnamon
3/4 cup butter or margarine softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 egg
1 t vanila extract
2 cups chocolate chips
1/2 cup coarse chopped peanuts

Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and peanut butter in a large mixer bowl until creamy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually beat in the flour mixture. Stir in morsels and peanuts. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets. Press down slightly to flatten into two inch circles.

Bake in preheated 375 oven for 7 - 10 minutes until edges are set but centers are still soft. Let stand for 4 minutes remove to wire racks and cool. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

I usually leave out the chopped peanuts.
