Did I say how much I like Martha Stewart & her recipes? Heaven Knows I do.. and these
Camping would not be complete with out yummy treats to munch on while fishing, reading, or just sitting around the campfire don't you agree?
Here is the recipe for her Peanut Butter Cookies ( just like mom used to make)
These cookies can also be made with chunky peanut butter.
Add to Shopping ListIngredients
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- Dry-roasted, salted peanuts, for sprinkling (optional)
Directions
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
In the bowl of an
electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, peanut butter, and both sugars together until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, and mix on medium speed until well combined.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift flour and baking soda together. Add to the butter mixture, and beat just to combine.
Scoop out 2 tablespoons of dough, shape into a ball, and place on one of the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with remaining dough, placing scoops 3 inches apart. Dip the tines of a fork in warm water; press the dough balls lightly with the back of the fork to flatten them slightly (dip the fork back in the water for each dough ball, to prevent sticking). Sprinkle with a few peanuts, if desired.
Transfer to the oven, and bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the baking sheets between the oven shelves halfway through baking. Transfer baking sheets to a
wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
Yum,Yum! I love Peanut Butter Cookies. I'm also a fan of Martha Stewart. My vacation is almost over and it is back to reality!
