How To Make the best peanut butter cookies
-
1Heat oven to 350*
-
2In large bowl,combine peanut butter,shortening,brown sugar,milk,and vanilla. Beat at medium speed until well blended.
-
3Add Egg and beat JUST until blended.
-
4Combine flour, baking soda,and salt.
-
5Add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture.
-
6Mix JUST until blended on low speed.
-
7I roll the dough into small balls about the size of a walnut (but you can just drop by rounded tablespoons).
-
8Use a fork dipped frequently in either water or granulated sugar to flatten dough slightly making a criss-cross pattern with the tines of the fork.
-
9Bake one baking sheet at a time for 7-10 minutes(depending on your oven it varies)...watch them though because you want them to JUST set...never more than SLIGHTLY BEGINNING to brown.
