Classic Peanut Butter Cookies ...p99

Cookie #2 taken to the wedding.  These went extremely fast - one of the best peanut butter cookie recipes I've tried, but I'll have to let you know how they compare to Kimberly's recipe when I attempt another batch.

I refrigerated the raw batch for about an hour before rolling into the little balls and flattening - they made perfect little circles and I was so excited!  I know, it's silly, but so often I get the cracking around the edges that drives me nuts!


As the recipe says, do not overbake.  Set your timer for the 10 minutes as part of their delectability is their softness.

Hardy Appetit!
