I think I got this recipe from a flyer that was in some of my grandmother's things that I inherited. I put it in our church cookbook about 25 years ago! They are very different and quite good. Perfect with a glass of milk for dunking as they are crispy.

How To Make peanut cookie crunch

  • Step 1
    Cream margarine, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add most of beaten egg reserving about 2 tablespoons.
  • Step 2
    Sift together dry ingredients and add to margarine mixture. Mix to combine well.

    Bake at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes until golden. Cool in the pan and break into pieces.
