    Awesome recipe ... Own a restaurant and this recipe just can't be beat.... It's a winner and one little adjustment is all we tweeked on it.... Add an additional 2T of butter... You'll be glad you did!!!

  2. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    These PB cookies have turned out perfectly for me every time I make them which has been several times a year. I came back to print out a new copy since my printout is pretty worn by now. Wanted to let everyone else know that these cookies are good despite the one negative review.

  3. evanslady REVIEW:

    absolutely loved this recipe!! I am NOT a cook at all and have tried a three ingredient PB cookies and they were ok but i wasnt impressed so I did some looking around and found this recipe and thank goodness I did, these PB cookies are the best I've ever had. definately recommend this recipe

  4. Peanut Butter Cookie Lover REVIEW:

    I have tried many recipes for peanut butter cookies. This recipe I intend to keep in my cook book. It tastes so good and the cookies rise and bake perfectly. The batter looks odd but after it cooks, it speaks for its self. I did actually add a little more butter than it called for and I think that was a good decision. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RECIPE and I WILL make it again!!!!!!!

  5. cocog REVIEW:

    When I made the dough I knew I was in trouble. It was flaking to the bottom of the bowl. I reread the recipe just to be sure I didn't miss anything but I didn't. When I rolled them into balls thank God my hands warmed the dough to form. The cooked version wasn't tasty either.
