Dessert: Melt In Your Mouth Peanut Butter Cookies
INGREDIENTS
Servings: 3
shortening
white sugar
packed brown sugar
peanut butter
eggs
water
sifted all-purpose flour
baking soda
salt
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Beat the shortening with the sugars and the peanut butter until well mixed. Beat in the egg and the water.
- Gradually beat in the flour, baking soda and salt. Form cookies on an ungreased baking sheet with a cookie press or roll into balls and smash flat with a floured fork or fingers.
- Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 12 minutes or more until done, usually when the puffed up cookie has lowered down to level. Before then it is more chewy.
- For High Altitude, omit water and add eggs last, mixing well, but not beating them as at sea level. Raise the temperature to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C). Or use a convection oven at 312 degrees F (155 degrees C) for 15 min works even better.
