From Quick Cooking Magazine. These are scrumptious - my favorite peanut butter cookies! Using all butter makes them nice and crisp-if you prefer softer cookies, replace 1/2 cup of the butter with 1/2 cup shortening.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter (reduced-fat or generic brands not recommended)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 (10 ounce) package peanut butter chips
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter and sugars.
2. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.
3. Beat in syrup and vanilla.
4. In a separate bowl, combine flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt; graduallly add to the creamed mixture and mix well.
5. Stir in peanut butter chips.
6. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
7. Bake at 325* F for 15-18 minutes or until LIGHT golden brown. Be very careful and do not overcook.
8. Cool for 1 minute before removing to wire racks.
