My mom made homemade cookies every week when I was growing up. She is the reason everyone thinks I'm a good cook. She finds and grew up with the best recipes. Our family has published two cookbooks for our family and friends. However this recipe is from a cookbook called the "BEST OF COUNTRY Cookies" cookbook from Country Magazine that my mom gave me one year and these are my boys favorite cookie. They are pretty darn good! Thanks Mom!
Five Chip Cookies
In mixing bowl, cream together:
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter
2/3 c. brown sugar
Add:
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix well.
Combine 2 cups flour with 1 cup of quick oats, 2 tsp. baking soda and 1/2 tsp. salt.
Gradually add to the creamed mixture.

Dear Connie,
I just discovered your blog. how refreshing it is. I loved seeing pictures of you and your family but you look young enough to be the the mother... so very pretty you are and your grandchildren are just gorgeous. I am 54 years old and I have not been blessed with grandchildren yet. My only 33 year old daughter went home to be with the Lord on October 23, 2009. She battled cancer with everything she had but her weight got down to 48 lbs and she just was too weak to continue fighting a cancer that kept growing. It has been very hard.hug those children and grandchildren real tight because life is but a vapor.
Your cookie recipe sounds yummy.
I hope we can become friends.

I made these cookies and you were right! They are so delicious! I needed two hostess gifts and they were the perfect solution. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Hope you have a special time with your family.
