The Best Peanut Butter Cookies
A favorite cookie at my house is a peanut butter cookie. After making a certain peanut butter cookie for 20 years, I’m deeming these cookies, The Best Peanut Butter Cookies.
This recipe is my hands-down all-time favorite peanut butter cookie. The ratio of brown sugar to white sugar in this recipe results in a chewier cookie than the standard peanut butter cookie recipe.
This recipe is from a cookbook called From Granny’s Apron Pocket that my grandmother gave me years and years ago. I love a recipe that has been around for a long time and this one has. I've mad this countless of times!
This recipe makes six dozen cookies. They store well in an airtight container and they also freeze well.I bake three sheets of cookies at a time in my oven using the convection setting. After four minutes, I turn the cookie sheets and then bake four more minutes.If you don't need a batch of six dozen cookies, half the recipe.
