Peanut Butter Cookies
Another recipe modified from something found on the net. Most recipes have about the same proportion of peanut butter to other ingredients.
Ingredients:
Butter: 1 cup, softened
Brown sugar: 1 cup
White sugar: 1 cup
Eggs: 2
Peanut Butter: 1 cup, creamy or crunchy
Vanilla: 1/2 tsp.
Vanilla pudding mix: 3.8-4 oz. package
Flour: 2.5 cups
Baking soda: 1 tsp.
Salt: 1/2 tsp.
Directions:
1. Mix butter and sugars until smooth. Mix in eggs.
2. Mix in peanut butter. If you use the type which only has peanuts and salt as the ingredients, then this is a little runnier and the cookies will spread a little more. This is OK, I think the flavor is better with this type of peanut butter. I also like crunchy a little better.
3. Add the vanilla.
4. Mix in the pudding mix.
5. Mix in the flour and salt and baking soda.
6. Make tablespoon size balls of dough and place on parchment paper on cookie sheets about 2-3 in. apart. Use parchment paper whenever possible, it's great.
7. Mush the cookies with a fork to get the traditional peanut butter cookie look, if you want.
8. Bake at 375 deg. for 18-21 min. The tops should start to crack a little when they are done. You've gone too long if they start to brown on top.
