Almond Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

I had this idea for a cookie running around in my head for a couple days, but as we've all been hit with the flu at our house, I only got around to making them yesterday. It was worth the wait! I took my favorite cookie recipe and totally changed it up to take it from regular chocolate chip to the ultimate cookie in my opinon.

Here it is!

Almond Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup white sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

3 tbsp peanut butter

2 cups flour

1 cup quick oats

1 1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp cinnamon

1 cup chocolate chips

3/4 cup sliced almonds

Cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, then add peanut butter.

In a seperate bowl mix together flour, oats, soda, cinnamon, chocolate chips, and almonds. Mix into butter mixture.

Spoon onto cookie sheets and then roll to give them a good shape.

Bake at 350 for approximately 9 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through.
