Hmmm...maybe I should call this blog "Katrina Bakes" — so far there are a lot of cookie and treat recipes...These cookies are my mom's recipe. The peanut butter cookies I remember as a kid. They are fabulous. Perfect texture, flavor, and excellent with a tall glass of milk.
I actually don't make these very often because they're too tasty to resist. I do bake them 2-4 minutes less than mom so they are crisp outside and soft in the center, rather than dunkers, but if you like them more firm for dunking, you can bake them 10-12 like Mom's recipe. I don't bake longer than 8 minutes.
1 cube butter
1/2 c. peanut butter
1/2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 c. flour
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
Cream butters and sugars, add egg and mix. Sift all the dry stuff through a sieve into bowl and mix. Scoop dough onto parchment-lined cookie sheets with a 1-inch scoop and flatten with the tines of a fork in a crisscross pattern. Bake at 375-degrees F for 7 minutes (8-minutes max). Makes about 4 dozen cookies.

Oh, I will be making these soon, the picture even looks too hard to resist!
What did you think of the "Outrageous Chocolate Chip (peanut butter) Cookies"?
Thankfully, I wasn't a fan. The texture...maybe it was the oatmeal or the chunky (I'm guessing) peanut butter. I expected to love them, but for how "bad" they are, it's probably good that I left the scarfing to Joel.
