A recipe collection wouldn't be complete without most children's favorite cookie -
Peanut Butter Cookies. This is a very easy-to-make and delicious cookie.
I believe this cookie recipe was originally a
Betty Crocker cookbook
recipe from the 1950s.

Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe
Recipe Type:
Cookies,
Christmas Cookie,
Peanut Butter, Molded Cookies
Yields:
3 dozen cookies
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 12 min
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or margarine, room temperature
1/2 cups granulated
sugar
1/2 cup firmly-packed brown sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky), room temperature
1
egg
1 cup all-purpose
flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
Preparation:
 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease
cookie sheets
or use the
Silicone Baking Mats to prevent the cookies
from sticking. I personally recommend that you use the
Silicone Baking Mats as
nothing sticks to them.
In a large bowl, cream butter or margarine,
granulated sugar, brown sugar, and peanut
butter until light and fluffy. Stir in egg, flour, and baking soda.
Using your hands, roll dough by teaspoonfuls into small balls; place onto
prepared cookie sheets. Flatten into a crisscross pattern with a fork that has
been dipped in water.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until light brown. NOTE: Do not
over bake as the bottoms of the cookies will burn easily. Remove from
oven and cool on
wire cooling racks.
Yields 3 dozen cookies.
