Best Peanut Butter Cookies

3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Sift dry ingredients. Cream butter and peanut butter; beat in one at a time, the brown sugar, sugar, egg and vanilla. Add flour. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonful on ungreased cookie sheet. Press down with powdered fork.

*Idea: At Christmastime instead of pressing dough down with fork, I roll the dough in sugar, bake them and then press a Hershey Kiss into the cookie when it is hot out of the oven.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
