This is my families favorite peanut butter cookie. If you love peanuts, you'll love these cookies. Ingredients:
1/2 cup vegetable shortening |
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened |
1 cup super chunky peanut butter |
1 cup granulated sugar |
1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed |
2 eggs |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup dry roasted peanuts, very coarsely chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together shortening, butter or margarine, and peanut butter with electric mixer on medium speed. Gradually add both sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time until light and fluffy.
3. In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to creamed mixture; beat until well blended. Stir in peanuts.
4. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonsful onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
