Double Whammy Cookies. They won’t last long!

Are there many kids, (big or little) who don’t like chocolate and peanut butter? Better teach them how to make these for themselves. Why? Because they’ll be begging you for more!

  • 1 cup white flour (250 mL)
  • ½ cup cocoa powder (125 mL)
  • 2 tsp. baking soda (10 mL)
  • 1 tsp. baking powder (5 mL)

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (250 mL)
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips (250 mL)

Directions
