These are chewy cookies (unusual for most peanut butter cookies!), and I was surprised at just how peanut buttery they taste, given they don't contain much peanut butter. Very convenient to keep in your freezer. I did find I had to bake these longer than stated. Add 3 hours refrigeration to the times listed. From Cooking Light (November 1997). Ingredients:
1 cup flour |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons stick margarine, softened |
2 tablespoons chunky peanut butter |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup granulated sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 egg white |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients, and set aside. 2. Beat margarine and peanut butter until light and fluffy. 3. Gradually add sugars, beating until well-blended. 4. Add vanilla and egg white, and beat well. 5. Add flour mixture; stir well. 6. Turn dough out onto wax paper; shape into a 6-inch log. 7. Wrap log in wax paper; freeze 3 hours. 8. Preheat oven to 350F°. 9. Cut log into 24 (1/4-inch) slices, and place slices 1 inch apart on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. 10. Bake at 350° for 8 to 10 minutes. 11. Remove from pan, and cool on wire racks. |
