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!)

Ancient Arts Fibre Craft in Chinook Arch or Brindle Dog
Oooh! The Ancient Arts Fingering Abyssinian Cat is gorgeous!
I would love to try the Fibre Company Cumbria!
Thanks for the contest and the recipe!
I would love BMFA Worthy in Spores!
The Blue Moon Fiber Arts Worthy sounds super. Who could resist cashmere and silk? As a spinner, I could also go for the Polwarth and silk roving.
The peanut butter and chocolate chip recipe is also very enticing. Here in Madison, a small company makes a chocolate peanut butter – it makes wonderful peanut butter cookies.
Thanks for the yarn contest.
Ooooh maybe Wollmeise Blend in Ein Klein Wenig Verrucht – because I’ve tried the other WM bases, and who can resist a colourway with that name. 😉 (And then I noticed that “everyone” picks Blue Moon Worthy, and I can totally understand why – it looks gorgeous. I’m changing my mind, I’ll pick Worthy in the Smoke on the Water colourway. So pretty!)
I am dying for Guatemalanness by Meadowcroft Dyeworks! All the colors make me sooooo happy!
Sure, I’ll play. I’d love to win BMFA Worthy in Bluemoonstone.
A skein of Blue Moon Fiber Art’s Worthy in blue moonstone.
What a fun game! I love the Wollmeise Twin in Gansefüßchen. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
The polworth/silk roving in Stella, or Worthy in Tardis Blue.

I firmly believe peanut butter to be its own food group.

Breathless bark looks good to me…looks yummy like peanut butter!!
I would love a skein of BMFA Worthy in HRH Crown Princess of Purple. I haven’t tried that base yet and it sounds y.u.m.m.y – plus, I love the name of that color way….especially since my husband has been known to call me Queenie a time or two. I don’t know why though…
I just made peanut cookies last week. I put them in a mini muffin pan and as soon as them come out of the oven, I put a mini peanut butter cup on top and press it down. If I’m lucky enough to win I’d pick Blue Moon Fiber Arts, Worthy – Fingering H.R.H. Crown Princess of Purple Violetta.
I love peanut butter cookies! The yarn I would like to win is Ancient Arts Fibre Crafts Heavy Fingering Yarn in Nectarine.
Thanks for the recipe!

I love them all, but maybe the kauni best. 🙂
I have to narrow it down to one skein? This is extremely difficult! But I would love a skein of BMFA Worthy in Orchid Queen.
Have you tried the new Snickers Peanut Butter Squared?
