Peanut Butter Cookies




Ingredients
1/2 Cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 Cup white sugar
3/4 Cups Peanut butter (creamy)
1/2 Cup butter (1 stick)
3 Tablespoons milk
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
1 egg
1 3/4 Cups all purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
Green Decorating sugar
**adapted from my Old Fashioned Cookies Book ***

Makes 2 Dozen Cookies

Heat oven to 375*

In a large bowl combine brown sugar, white sugar, peanut butter, butter, milk and vanilla. Mix at medium speed until well blended. Add your egg and mix until just combined.

Add flour, baking soda and salt while mixing on low speed.

Roll 1 tbsp of mix into a ball and place on a foiled baking sheet.
Continue until you have finished all the dough. Leave 1 1/2 inches apart on cookie sheet. With a fork press down with a criss cross pattern.

Then shake some decorating sugar on top (it was close to St. Patty's day). You don't NEED the sugar. ;)

Bake one sheet at a time for 7-9 minutes. Don't do like I did and FORGET that they were in there for your 2nd tray. It will make you sad. But it will make you happy that putting them in the microwave for 30 seconds makes them edible.

Enjoy, have a great Saturday and God Bless!
