My Favorite Thing:
Peanut butter cookies and my cookie scoop
Peanut Butter Cookies
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar or 1/4 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (I use 1/2 whole wheat flour and 3/4 all-purpose flour)
1. In a large mixing bowl beat the butter and peanut butter on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder and baking soda. Beat till combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla till combined. Gradually mix in flour (switch to mixing by hand if needed).
2. Shape dough into 1-inch balls, place on an ungreased (use parchment paper!) cookie sheet and flatten by making a crisscross marks with the tines of a fork. Bake in an 375 degree oven for 7-9 minutes or till bottoms are lightly browned.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

OH MY GOD I must make peanut butter cookies.
Did you use brown sugar or honey?
I used brown sugar. didn’t have enough honey.

Oh my…..I made the cookies with Diabeti Sweet brown sugar and Diabeti Sweet granulated sugar. (This is a measure-for measure sugar substitute for people diabetes that cooks just like sugar).
Anyway, these are the yummiest peanut butter cookies I have ever eaten. Thank you.
