These are my favorite peanut butter cookies. They are so delicious. Be sure to use real butter, that is the key to the best tasting cookies. I found the recipe in the Pillsbury Complete Cook Book. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 egg |
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 cup sugar |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375°F.
2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar, brown sugar, and butter.
3. Beat until fluffy.
4. Add peanut butter, vanilla and egg, mix well.
5. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt.
6. Mix dry ingredients together with a fork or wire whisk.
7. Add dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well.
8. Scoop dough with a 1 1/2-inch cookie scoop.
9. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets lightly sprayed with Pam.
10. Dip fork in 1/8 cup sugar and flatten dough with a crisscross pattern.
11. Lightly sprinkle sugar on the cookies.
