A nice chewy cookie. I like to add M&M's, or chocolate chunks for a change. You can use all creamy, or all crunchy peanut butter. I like to use both.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups quick-cooking oats
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. In a large bowl, cream together shortening, butter, brown sugar, white sugar, peanut butters and vanilla until smooth.
3. Beat in the eggs until well blended.
4. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture.
5. Mix in the oats until just combined.
6. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until just light brown.
8. Cool and store in an airtight container.
