<td class="ingredients">
<ul class="ingredients">
<li>2 cups all-purpose flour</li>
<li>1 teaspoon baking soda</li>
<li>1 teaspoon salt</li>
<li>1 cup unsalted butter, slightly softened</li>
<li>3/4 cup granulated sugar</li>
<li>2/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar</li>
<li>3 large eggs</li>
<li>1 teaspoon vanilla extract</li>
<li>1 &#038; 1/2 cups (9 ounces) bittersweet chocolate chips</li>
<li>1 cup (6 ounces) peanut butter chips</li>
<li>1 cup unsalted macadmaia nuts, coarsely chopped</li>
</ul>
</td>
<td class="directions">
<p>Preheat oven to 350°.</p>
<p>Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.  Set aside.</p>
<p>Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter until creamy (about 1 minute).  Gradually add sugar and brown sugar, beating until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.  Mix in vanilla extract.</p>
<p>Reduce mixer speed to low.  Add dry ingredients in three additions, mixing just until blended.  Stir in chocolate, peanut butter chips, and macadamia nuts just until blended.</p>
<p>Drop dough onto ungreased baking sheets, placing them 3 inches apart.*  Bake 11-13 minutes, until edges are golden brown.  Cool cookies on wire racks.</p>
</td>

</div>
<p>*The original recipe suggests scooping dough using a 1/4-cup cookie scoop, which yields 32 cookies.  I used a 1 tablespoon scoop, which yields about 60 cookies. You may need to adjust baking time depending on the size of your cookies. </p>

<ul class="ingredients">
<li>1 &#038; 1/4 cups all-purpose flour</li>
<li>3/4 teaspoon baking soda</li>
<li>1/2 teaspoon baking powder</li>
<li>1/4 teaspoon salt</li>

<li>1 large egg, at room temperature</li>
<li>1 tablespoon milk</li>
<li>1 teaspoon vanilla extract</li>
<li>1 cup peanut butter chips</li>
</ul>
</td>
<td class="directions">
<p>Preheat oven to 350°.</p>
<p>Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.  Set aside.</p>
<p>In a large bowl, beat butter and peanut butter until fluffy.  Add sugar and brown sugar, beating until smooth.  Add egg, mixing well.  Add milk and vanilla extract.  Gradually add flour mixture and mix until combined.  Stir in peanut butter chips.</p>
<p>Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.  Leave several inches between cookies.  Lightly indent the tops of the cookies with a fork.  Do not overly flatten cookies.  Sprinkle each cookie lightly with sugar.</p>
<p>Bake for 10-12 minutes.  Cookies may not look done, but do not overbake.  Cool on baking sheets for 1 minute.  Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.</p>

<p>Preheat oven to 350°.  Butter a 9&#8243;x 13&#8243;baking pan.  Line bottom with parchment paper.  Butter the parchment and dust with flour, tapping out the excess.</p>
<p>Beat butter and sugar together on medium speed of an electric mixer.  Mix for about 2 minutes, until fluffy.  Add eggs and peanut butter, and beat about 2 minutes or until combined.</p>
<p>In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder.  Add to butter mixture and beat on low speed until combined.  Add vanilla and mix.</p>
<p>Transfer two-thirds of dough to pan and spread evenly.  Spread jam on top of dough.  Crumble remaining dough  on top of jam.  Sprinkle with peanuts.</p>
<p>Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until golden.  Rotate pan half-way through baking.  Tent loosely with foil if bars are getting too dark.</p>
<p>Cool on a wire rack.  Run a knife around the edges to loosen.  Refrigerate 1-2 hours.  Cut into bars and store in an airtight container at room temperature.</p>
