Chunky Drop Cookies

I made these with a friend the other day. I thought they were pretty good. I was intrigued that they had pretzels in them. I didn't add the raisins.

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
3 tsp. vanilla
2.5 cups flour
3/4 tsp. baking powder
2 cups halved pretzel sticks
1 cup coarsely chopped dry roasted peanuts
1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
1 cup raisins

Cream butter and sugars. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add to creamed mixtrue. Stir in pretzels, peanuts, chocolate chunks, and raisins.

Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 for 10-14 minutes or until edges are golden brown.

Yield about 6.5 dozen.
