"This is a great recipe - I brought these cookies to a get together, and they were gone really fast, with requests for the recipe. They're flexible because you can use smooth or crunchy peanut butter, as well. Enjoy!"

  • Roll into tablespoonful size balls of dough, 2 inches apart, onto greased baking sheets. Flatten each, in criss-cross pattern, with tines of fork. I like to sprinkle a little sugar on top of the cookies for a bit of crunch. :o).

  1. Yummy!!!! Yes these are quick to put together. I did make some changes as DH asked for oatmeal cookies and when I came across these I knew I could tweak adding oats into peanut butter cookies which he likes. I really think peanut butter his the one food he couldn`t live without. Well Katzen you inspiredme to create this Recipe #490362 recipe. I did make it gluten free. Being I used almond meal in place of flour which is higher in oil I cut back to 1/2 cup oil, (my choice was coconut oil) made for veggie tag. Thank you for the yummy goodness and John thanks you too! ;)

  3. Made for 123 hits.Great recipe...just found them a little too sugary for our tastes.Easily remedied by reducing the sugars a touch.

  4. Simple and yummy, and oh so tasty. This is a fabulous cookie recipe that I will definitely use in the future. I did not use Butter Flavor Crisco, just regular margarine. Other than that, stuck to the recipe. They came out moist and chewy, and perfect. I do not want to share! Thanks for the recipe! Made for Newest 'Zaar Tag April '09.

  5. So tasty and buttery. I used someone's advice and rolled them in sugar,so the outside was crunchy. I also cooked them till they were almost brown, so they were really crispy. DH's pool group at the elks, gave them the thumbs up. Made for I reviewed tag.

I'm a now vegan who used to make one heck of a souvlaki. I love cooking, I was a huge fan of Moosewood and Molly Katzen prior to going vegan (although that has nothing to do with my choosing the name Katzen - that's just what my German Grandma has called me all my life.) Aside from cooking, I also love scuba diving, cycling, politics, and reading.
