Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chunk Cookies

I had a colossal fanging for a cookie the other day; it HAD to have Peanut Butter in it and I was thinking rolled oats too. I love Google! Typed my criteria into the field and came up with this recipe. I pretty much followed it to-the-T, with the exception of adding a generous handful of craisins.
Yes, it is heaps of Peanut Butter, but oh my goodness, they are good!
