Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Pretzel Cookies

So much goodness in these cookies!!!  I saw this recipe on Tasty Kitchen and knew it would go over well in this household.  I love pretzels, David loves peanut butter and chocolate...well, everyone loves chocolate!  I only had a couple, sent David to work with a bag full and the boys finished the rest off...60 cookies gone in 3 days.  Shameful!

These cookies did take a little time, but the result was a very soft, interestingly textured cookie, full of many surprises!
