Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 c All-purpose flour
1 1/2 ts Double-acting baking powder
1 t Baking soda
1/2 ts Salt
6 tb Unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 c Chunk-style peanut butter
1 c Firmly packed light brown su
2 ea Large eggs
1 1/4 c Buttermilk
1 1/2 c Miniature chocolate chips

This recipe can be used to make mini-muffins or
mini-loaves. Into a bowl sift together the flour, the
baking powder, the baking soda, and the salt. In a
large bowl with an electric mixer cream together the
butter, the peanut butter, and the brown sugar and
beat in the eggs, 1 at a time. Beat in the buttermilk
and beat the mixture until it is combined well. Add
the flour mixture, beat the batter until it is just
combined, and stir in the chocolate chips. Divide the
batter among 5 buttered and floured loaf pans, each 5
3/4 by 3 1/4 by 2 inches, and bake the breads in the
middle of a preheated 350 oven for 40 to 45 minutes,
or until a tester comes out clean. Remove the breads
from the pans and let them cool, right sides up, on a
rack. The breads keep, wrapped well in plastic wrap
and foil, chilled for 1 week or frozen for 1 month.
Makes 5 small loaves.
