Course: Dessert Yield: 30 servings Prep Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 10 mins
Ingredients
- 1 Cup of margarine (bakes more evenly than butter)
- 1 Cup of smooth peanut butter
- 1 Cup of white sugar
- 1 Cup of brown sugar
- 2 1/2 Cup of all purpose flour
- 1 Teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 1/2 Teaspoon of baking soda
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 Cup of peanuts (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cream together margarine, peanut butter,white and brown sugar. Beat in eggs.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir into batter. Put batter in refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Roll into 1 inch balls and put on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern. ( I add 2 peanuts (1 cut in half) on top to make a pretty decoration, see picture).
- Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes or until cookies begin to brown. Do not over-bake.
