This is my first blog post. I want to get all my recipes online so I can access them wherever I am. That’s my goal!

I’m making these cookies tomorrow as it will be starting a three day rain (maybe more, we shall see)! This is a recipe I found on the Jif peanut butter site https://www.jif.com/recipes/cookies-and-desserts/irresistible-peanut-butter-cookies

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup butter (unsalted)
• 1 1/4 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspooon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1: Prepare oven then combine peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, milk and vanilla, then add egg.

HEAT oven to 375ºF. Combine peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in a large bowl. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until well blended. Add the egg and beat just until blended.

Step 2: Combine dry ingredients then add them to the mixture. Once combined, place rounded spoonfuls on a baking tray and flatten crisscross with a fork.

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt. Add to the mixture at low speed. Mix just until blended. Drop by rounded spoonfuls of dough 2-inches apart onto parchment lined or greased baking sheet. Flatten each cookie slightly in a crisscross pattern using the tines of a fork.

Step 3: Bake 8-12 minutes one sheet at a time.

BAKE one baking sheet at a time for 8 to 12 minutes, or until set (springs back slightly when pressed) and just beginning to turn golden brown. Cool 2 minutes on the baking sheet. Remove cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
