Grandad Danners Favorite Peanut Butter Cookies Recipes

THE BEST PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Beat butter, peanut butter, and sugars until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla. Mix baking powder with flour, then add flour a cup at a time.
• Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface and cut with a cookie cutter dipped in flour so it doesn't stick.
• I made some cookies thicker than others and I really liked the chewiness of the thicker cookies, so next time I will be making them all thick!
• Bake at 350 for 10-13 minutes. Until they are just getting golden on the bottom, to ensure you will not have a dry cookie.
• The cookies with the fork marks are crispier, so if you prefer a crispy cookie. Press a for on the tops of the cookies creating a criss-cross design.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter, and brown sugars. Stir in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour in thirds and stir until smooth. Fold in the peanut butter chips. Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized balls (about 1 1/2 tablespoons). At this point you can roll them in granulated sugar or you can press each cookie down with the tines of a fork. Either way, bake for 10 minutes, in a nonstick baking pan, rotating the pan halfway through baking time. Cool the cookies on a rack before serving.

GIANT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°.
• In large bowl, combine sugars, margarine, peanut butter, vanilla and egg; beat well.
• Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup and level off.
• Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; mix well.
• If you are making the large cookies, it helps to chill the dough for an hour or so at this point, before shaping. It seems to make a firmer cookie--less likely to break. If you aren't concerned about that, you can skip this step.
