It’s Friday, and I have another tried and true recipe for you. I have decided that I have so many peanut butter recipes pinned on my Pinterest account that I finally just gave in and started a peanut butter board. Apparently I like peanut butter in things.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
3 Tbl. milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Cream together the peanut butter, butter, and both sugars. Beat in the milk, egg and vanilla until fluffy.
Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl and then add into the peanut butter mixture.
Roll into tablespoon-sized balls. Place 2″ apart on cookie sheets and press down with a fork.
Bake 8-10 minutes at 375 degrees. Enjoy!
This recipe got me to thinking about peanut butter and chocolate colored yarn, which resulted in a walk around The Loopy and a peanut buttered Loopy photo. We have a LOT of beautiful yarn here in the shop. I try not to take too many walk-abouts because I always come back to my office with an armful of yarn that I need to buy. SO.MUCH.BEAUTIFUL.YARN.HERE.
So here’s the contest question – which skein of beautiful yarn would you like to win from The Loopy Ewe? Leave your answer in the comments and I’ll do a random drawing next week and we will send it to you! (Well, we’ll send it to you if we draw your name. You know how contests work!)

i’d love to try the wollmeise lace!
I would love a skein of WM DK in the Blaue Tinte colorway. It’s an amazing blue!
Thanks for the fun contest.
Just one! Oh man. I would pick Fibernymph Dye Works in Highlighters. Or… or… or… man!
Those cookies look yummy!
I would love to win a skein of Blue Moon Fiber Arts Marine Silk.
I would love to win a skein of JulieSpins MCN 430 in either Magic Carpet or Tudor Tapestry – you pick!!! Thank you!!!
I love peanut butter..thanks for the recipe. I’d love to win a skein of Madelinetosh Tosh sock in Betty Draper’s blues.
Oh, such lovely colors! Not only am I drooling over the cookie recipe, but I am also drooling over Kauni ED. Thanks!
I would love to win a skein of
Madelinetosh, Pashmina Sequoia
because the Sequoia National Park is such a beautiful favorite place to visit and the tree bark color is so warm and yummy. Knitting up Pashmina in the Sequoia color way would be a vacation in itself 🙂
I’d love a hank of Dream in Color Smooshy with Cashmere in Evening Flame. I don’t know which is more sinful; cashmere or peanut butter. Hmmmm!
I would love love love a skein of Pashmina in the Birch Grey colorway – I have been smitten with it since it went up in a recent update!
I’ve got my eye on a skein of Wollemeise DK in Lila Ludmilla, or pretty much any color of Jade Sapphire Mongolian Cashmere.
Sweet Georgia, Tough Love Sock in Midnight Garden
Those cookies look so good! I’ll have to bake them with the kids this week. 😀
I’d LOVE a skein of Madtosh Pashmina in Big Sur. That color is just gorgeous and it would make a very nice pair of cozy socks for cold winter days.
I would love to win a skein of Rastita Glitter. The colours and the texture look amazing. I can see a warm winter hat.
Just off to have a go at making the peanut butter cookies.
If I could win a skein of yarn, I’d choose Three Irish Girls Adorn Sock in Amazonia. How gorgeous!! Thanks for this opportunity and my husband thanks you for the recipe!!
When it comes to that really special yarn, it would have to be Worthy in Pining 4Ewe. It would be one amazing cowl; only “worthy” of being worn by me!
That’s a tough question because you have so, so much wonderful yarn, but I’ve loved the Hand Maiden I’ve worked with, and the Sea Silk in Cactus Flower is gorgeous, so I would love to win that!
Those cookies look deliciously good. I will have to try that recipe. I would love to win a hank of Lorna’s Laces, sportmate Granville (847).
Those peanut butter cookies look delicious!
Do you mean any yarn in the shop or just the ones in the picture? If I could pick any skein at the Loopy Ewe, it would be Hedgehog Fibers Sock Yarn in Dusk, so that I could make something pink for my daughter.
I’d love to win a skein of The Fibre Company’s Tundra in Taiga. I really want to try this yarn. And the cookies – they look wonderful!!
I’ve always wanted a skein of Hand Maiden Sea Silk in Cactus Flower.
Those peanut butter chocolate chip cookies would go really well with a cup of tea right about now . . .
I would love to win the Hedgehog Fibres sock yarn in the Malice colorway. It would be perfect for Halloween.
I absolutely love the ‘Sheri’ colorway in Malabrigo Mechita. I have a friend named Sheri, with that spelling, and I think it will eventually need to become a cowl for her.
Thank you for the cookie recipe – looks GOOD!
I’ve really been wanting to try Hedgehog Fibres. Truffle looks great and so fitting to this post…peanut butter truffles!
Malabrigo, Rasta Azules is calling to me to make a cowl
I’d love a skein of Blue Moon Fiber Arts Worthy in Pining 4 Ewe! Amazing yarn in my favorite color!
Any Wollmeise lace weight is superb!
Oohhh! Hand Maiden Sea Silk in Cactus Flower or Beet!!!!
I’m using a skein of Blend now to knit a Heaven and Space and was thinking this evening how much I’d love to have another skein to make a shawl for my daughter. I doubted there would be any in stock, but to my surprise there were two really nice blues available that would be perfect for her. I’d love Blend in ‘Sail the 7 Seas’, but there’s only 1 skein, so if that’s gone, I’d love ‘Elsa.’ Regardless of whether or not I am a lucky girl, I’ll definitely be using this yarn again. I’ve never felt anything so soft and kind to my hands!
I would love to win a skein of Shalimar yarn in Breathless in the Thistle color.
I would love a skein of Shalimar Breathless DK in Byzantine
Shalimar Yarns, Breathless in the Mandarin colour as it has such depth and is different from my usual colour choices
I am craving a nice warm hat made out of The Fibre Company’s Tundra in Snowdrift . . .
I would love to win a skein of Breathless Bark. It would make a gorgeous fall shawl. Loopy looks great in browns.
I would like to win a skein of Madelintosh Pashmina in Glazed Pecan but all of those skeins in the picture are gorgeous…
Thanks for the recipe!
Peanut butter is the best! I love it with chocolate (me and everyone else in the world).
I would love to win a skein of Wollmeise Lace in Nichts.
Thanks for another great recipe, Sheri.
Peanut butter, chocolate and yarn .. oh my!
I would love to win a skein of Breathless in Cobalt Skies. Something to remind me of those warm lake breezes when the snow hits.
I would love a skein of Wollmeise Blend in either Sail The 7 Seas or the Ballerina color. Such a fabulous yarn!
I keep looking at Fiberstory, Fave in the Sweetly colorway…SO pretty!
There are so many wonderful yarns to choose from but I would love a skein of Swans Island Natural Colors Worsted in Tarragon. Love it!
Love the recipe! I would love to win a skein of Shibui Knits, Baby Alpaca in Caffeine because it is so soft and so warm!
I’d love a skein of Sweet Georgia Tough Sock in Sugar Shack because it looks like the perfect color for fall!
The cookies sound great! Thank you for the recipe. So many yarns I would love to try–Madelinetosh Pashmina in Baroque Violet would be wonderful!
I’ve been eyeing the skein of Wollmeise Lace in Vamp, but that is a BIG skein… so I will say that I also like the Loopy Seasonings in Cinnamon Toast 🙂
I will also say that those peanut butter cookies look
out-of-this-world!
Oh man, because I needed another peanut butter cookie recipe too! Love peanut butter cookies of all varieties.
I’d love to win a skein of Sweet Georgia Tough Love Sock in English Ivy.
Thank you for the yummy recipe! I would love a skein of Fibre Company Cumbria in any color. It would be great for a sweater but I would like to touch it first!
Well, if we’re choosing from those skeins, the Kauni ED. If we’re choosing from ALL the skeins at The Loooy Ewe, it is much harder. I’d love a tonal Wollmeise laceweight in blue, or red, or … probably any color you chose!
Thanks for another great contest!
And to be fair, I won something a while back, so don’t choose me!
Great recipe–looks yummy and will have to try it this fall. I would love to win a skein of Dream in Color Smooshy in any colorway–love them all!
So hard to choose! My friend did her loopy project with Shalimar lace. I would pick that, but color? Oh boy! Love them all! :p
I would be overwhelmed by so much yarn-all beautiful-but I would love to win a skein of Hedgehog Sock in Ink. Thanks for the chance!
