Choc Chip Peanut Butter & Pretzel Cookies - Wicked Wednesday

As some of you are aware, earlier in the year Steve and I went to America for a prostate cancer conference.  Eating American food was certainly a whirlwind in cultures, but they LOVE their pretzels!  Everything had pretzels!  Well maybe not, but most things did.  ;)   So when I tasted a peanut butter and pretzel cookie I was like - Oh wow I must have these on my blog!  So here is my thermomix choc chip peanut butter & pretzel cookie.

If you don't have pretzels or you don't like them - they can be made without them.  These would be great for an after school snack when the kids jump in the car or walk through the door - screaming they are hungry!

Also, considering it's school holidays - kids (age & skill permitting) can get in the kitchen and whip these up!
