Hubby has figured out a new trick: we can pretty much make cookies any time we want just from the random stuff we have in the house. He knows I LOVE dessert so it's hard for me to refuse when he wants to bake for me! Anyway, he made these really yummy peanut butter cookies the other day and I had to share them with you.
Ingredients:
• 1 c sugar
• 1/2 c butter
• 1/2 c peanut butter
• 1 egg
• 1 1/4 c flour
• 3/4 t baking soda
• 1/2 t baking powder
• 1/4 t salt
Preheat the oven to 300.
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
Form a ball with the dough and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate the ball for at least 30 minutes.
When you're ready to bake the cookies, use a tablespoon to create small balls of cookie dough and place on a lightly-greased baking sheet.
Bake at 300 for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
I do the whole "I want a treat, what can I make without visiting the store" thing.
ReplyDeleteIn fact a while back I ended up making Almond Butter cookies because I had picked up three jars of almond butter for $2 each [they are normally at least $8-10] and then realized I could never eat that much almond butter before it all expired.
I used a peanut butter cookie recipe and just used the almond butter instead. It was amazing!
these look so good! and GIANT!
ReplyDeleteThey look yummy. How sweet of your hubby to make them for you all :)
ReplyDeleteYum! I have a weakness for peanut butter cookies. :)
