Default Peanut Butter Cookies

[h=2]
[/h]
  • I use this recipe and throw everything in the mixing bowl at once. Always turns out great.
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
[h=2]Directions[/h]
  • Cream together the shortening, peanut butter and sugars. Beat in egg. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; gradually stir into the peanut butter mixture. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least one hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Make small balls of dough. Flatten with fork dipped in flour to form cross-wise pattern.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until just set. Remove from baking sheets to cool on racks.
