Recently, it was decided to start having pot lucks monthly at work to celebrate people’s birthdays – perfect motivation for me to try more recipes 🙂
I’ve professed my love for peanut butter before, and I wanted something easy to make this weekend – so PB cookies it is!
Of course I found the recipe on Pinterest – where else?
Here’s the link to the original.
It’s so easy-
2 cups peanut butter
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
I used Skippy Natural PB (no stir)
I thought it would be hard to mix the PB and sugar together, but it wasn’t too bad.
Look at all that sugar! Burying a ridiculous amount of pb…
Then beat in the eggs one at a time, stir in the remaining ingredients, & voila – there’s the dough.
Roll the dough into balls and cross-hatch the top with the bottom of a fork.
It made a ton of cookies. As it should considering it started with 2 cups each of PB and sugar.
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes (mine needed 10).
The original recipe said to move the cookies from the baking pan to a cookie rack after 5 minutes, but I found my cookies were breaking, or at the very least they were super crumbly. So my last few pans (I can’t remember how many pans I baked, I think 5?), I let the cookies sit for 15ish minutes before I moved them and they didn’t break or crumble 🙂
YUMMMM
