Cooking instruction summary:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, bread flour, baking soda and baking powder.

Add the eggs, vanilla and peanut butter, Mix until the batter is very light in color, 2-3 minutes. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated. By hand, mix in the chocolate and peanut butter cups. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to 24 hours. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment or silpat liners. Form balls of dough with about 2-3 tablespoons of dough (each of my cookie dough balls weighed 2.55 ounces - how's that for fussy?). Place on the cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle lightly with fleur de sel. Bake until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 13-16 minutes. Keep the dough refrigerated in between batches.

Food Joke

A young woman, who was at her father's funeral, asked her mother, "Mom, how did Dad die?" Her mom replied, "Heart attack." "What was he doing?" the daughter asked. Her mother said, "Well, we were having sex." This enfuriated the daughter, because they were both 80 years old. The daughter said, "You guys are 80 years old! You should have expected something like this! You're way too old to be engaging in this sort of activity!" The mom replied, "Well, you see, years ago, we realized that at noon every day, the church bells rang. So, we decided to work along to that nice, slow rhythm so that your father wouldn't have a heart attack. It worked for years too. That poor guy... he'd still be alive today if that darned Ice Cream truck hadn't come along..."
