peanut butter cookies. I have been using this recipe for 40 years. I like it because I can make a triple batch and freeze for later quick cookies . I roll the mix into balls, place the balls on a cookie sheet and put it in the freezer. When the balls are frozen I put in freezer bags with a dozen or two balls in each bag. Don't put unfrozen balls into a bag to freeze; they'll stick together. I also use a meat tenderizer (the tool) to mash the balls (faster than a fork). Ingredients:
1/2 cup peanut butter |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed) |
1 egg |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1 1/4 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cream peanut butter and butter. 2. Add sugars; mix well. 3. Add egg and vanilla; mix well. 4. Combine flour, baking powder and salt. 5. Add to first mixture; mix well. 6. Form into balls. 7. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and flatten with a fork. 8. Bake at 375 degrees F. for about 10 minutes. 9. Remove from sheet and let cool on waxed paper. |
