a good peanut butter cookie recipe. I know I might get shunned for this but, I don't like peanut butter cookies. They always seem dry, crumbly, hard and lacking that peanut butter goodness I think they should have. In an attempt to keep them from permanently being on my bad list I'm enlisting your help. If any of you have a good recipe and/or suggestions to make a great peanut butter cookie please share.

Here's what I find myself doing lately - make my favorite chocolate chip cookie dough recipe, leave out the chocolate chips and add a big huge scoop of peanut butter. Of course, that's all I've been doing for most cookie recipes lately - basic cookie dough with whatever added in that sounds good (like last night's oatmeal chocolate chip, or sometimes I'll toss coconut and peanut butter in, you get the idea).

Behold the peanut butter cookie recipe that just might change your mind for FOREVER! I have tried it twice and had ooey, gooey and deliciously soft peanut butter cookies. Both times. Mmm....
ReplyDelete2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
1 cup salted butter, softened
3 eggs
1 cup peanut butter
2 tsp vanilla
Preheat your oven to 300 degrees. Combing your flour, soda and salt with a whisk and set it aside. In another bowl blend your sugars and butter and you'll get a grainy paste. Add the eggs and peanut butter and vanilla. Now it should get light and fluffy and you can mix in your dry stuff but just until it is mixed.
Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto a sheet and with a wet fork do your little crisscross deal.
Bake 15 or so minutes or until just brown on the edges then don't let them sit on the pan too long. Get 'em on the wire rack right away. They may still seem a bit underdone but they will keep from getting crumbly this way.
Hope it works!
