After 42 years Steve told me Peanut Butter Cookies are his favorite. How did I not know this? Well....probably because he sure eats a lot of Chocolate Chip Cookies. Anyway, I found this recipe and I love that they stay soft and yummy.
Best Peanut Butter Cookie On Earth
1 c. butter crisco or butter
1c. creamy peanut butter
1 c. sugar
1 c. brown sugar
1 t. vanilla
3 eggs
4 c. flour
2 t. baking soda
1/4 t. salt
1 c. peanut butter chips (optional- but good)
additional 1/4 c. sugar to roll them in
Cream together the crisco, peanut butter, sugar & brown sugar.
Add vanilla and eggs and mix well.
Add dry ingredients and mix well.
Fold in the peanut butter chips. Roll into 1 1/2 inch balls and roll them in sugar. Place on a sprayed cookie sheet and flatten the balls with the bottom of a glass. Bake at 375 for 7 to 9 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE - if they turn brown they are too done. Cool for 5 minutes and then move to a cooling rack.
March 2020 = Due to the COVID-19 stay at home orders I put Reese's pieces in them instead of peanut butter chips....it might be my new favorite!!!
