Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Using an electric mixer, cream the butter, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg, followed by the vanilla and the wheat germ.
- Beat in the baking soda, salt and flour, scraping the bowl as needed.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low and blend in the granola, pecans, raisins and chocolate chips, mixing only enough to distribute these ingredients.
- Drop the batter by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets, leaving ample room for the cookies to spread.
- Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until nicely browned.
- Peanut Butter Trail Mix Cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to five days. Freeze them, wrapped airtight, for up to two months.
