Rezept vom 16.07.2013: Peanut Butter Pretzel Chunk Cookies (Vegan)

My first guess today was to post another recipe with bananas, because I got this delicious looking picture of a Sour Cream Banana Bread from Allan this morning!

But then I noticed the plenty of banana recipes I already got here.
So I decided to post a recipe of my second favorite and probably America's favorite ingredient:
Peanut Butter <3

You can get lots of things with peanut butter here, like PB Snickers, PB Twix, PB Oreos, PB M&M's, PB Cups, PB Baking Chips, PB Bars, PB Ice Cream and so on...
There are also a few snacks which combine peanut butter and pretzels! I love the combination of sweet & salty :)
That's why I decided to give you my favorite PB & Pretzel Cookie Recipe today!
It's definitely not low fat but sooooooo delicious!!
