I had cookies on my mind today... better yet, peanut butter cookies. 🙂 If you love peanut butter (like me) chances are you love chocolate and peanut butter, I mean let's face it the two just go together like bread and butter! And so they should... and they should never I repeat never be apart! 😉 I also wanted to drizzle something today... so these peanut butter chocolate-drizzled cookies were born.... and guess what?? They are only 2 smart points each.. yup that's right, so go ahead and eat a few. 🙂

Would reduced fat peanut butter be the same as light? I use the reduced fat and it is 5 pp for 2T. Thanks! I'm definitely planning on making these.
