Milk & Cookies

This morning while The Boyfriend was out surfing I felt like baking, and was also really in the mood for peanut butter, so the obvious choice was these tasty peanut butter cookies.
They take just a few minutes to whip up and are pretty delicious.

Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 1/4 cups sifted flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 180º.
Mix butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg and vanilla essence (first 6 ingredients)
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
Roll into balls and press down with a fork dipped in sugar.
Bake for 10-12 minute.

Ovens do vary so your baking time may be less. Just keep an eye on them.

This batch made exactly 30, which is a great number of cookies if you ask me. Any more and they tend to go stale (or us go fat!), but 30 is enough to share with a few friends but not get sick of them!


Give them a try. You won't regret it.

I love having a full cookie jar at home!
