Chocolate Chunk Peanut Butter Cookie Bars

Chocolate Chunk Peanut Butter Cookie Bars. Yes, the name is long but you have to properly describe these amazing cookie bars. I love these because they are like a soft chewy cookie with a touch of extra richness and a little bit of peanut butter. Many baked goods with peanut butter are just that...baked goods filled with penut butter. I like these because of the layers of flavor, you taste the cookie, you taste the chocolate chunks and then the peanut butter. These are baked in a way that they stay soft and moist so texture of the chocolate doesn't harden back up ...leaving the bar yummy and smooth.

Wine recommendation for this dessert: Some people would suggest you pair this with a port. However, I would suggest pairing this with Wild Horse Pinot Noir. This pinot is a versatile wine and pairs well with many foods. It has flavors of dried cherries, strawberries, and light spices. While pinot noir is a typically light bodied wine, this one is a bit more full bodied which means it will complete with the flavors of the Chocolate Chunk Peanut Butter Cookie Bars without over riding it. This wine can be found at most stores for around $20. You can usually find it at Trader Joes for about $16-$18.
