2lbs. ground turkey
3 whole eggs

Peanut Butter Chocolate chunk cookie
Serving size: 1 cookie
Points per serving: 2
I made these, but without the chocolate, only because I didn't have any in the house. They are the same points either way, so do what you want to.
2 spray(s) cooking spray
1 cup sugar, granulated
1/4 cup regular butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
2 large eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp table salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 cup whole grain wheat flour
1 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips (made with butter)
Preheat oven to 375. Coat 2 cookie sheets with cooking spray or cover with parchment paper. Place sugar, butter and peanut butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; blend well with mixer. Add salt, baking soda and flour to sugar mixture; beat until completely incorporated. Drop batter by heaping teaspoons onto prepared cookie sheets and flatten with the back of a wooden spoon. Make sure to leave about 2 inches between each cookie. (Bake in several batches to prevent over-crowding if necessary.) Place a chocolate chip in center of each cookie. Bake cookies until edges brown, about 10 to 11 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet for 1 or 2 minutes; remove cookies to a wire rack and cool completely. Yields 1 cookie per serving.
