While these were baking I didn't think I was going to leave a comment. But after I tried them they were very delicious and had to share my thoughts.

These cookies are great - BUT - a little too sweet. I have made them a few times. I prefer to use 1/2 cup sugar & 1/2 cup flour. They're super yummy when I use 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 cup granulated. ALSO, using chunky ALL NATURAL Kirkland peanut butter - Ahhhhh...they're FANTASTIC!

My husband and I laughed when I read this recipe after looking for "easy PB cookies." Colour me shocked that these are excellent!

"That's not a cookie" he said. Now he's not saying anything because he's sitting on the couch scarfing them down.

Excellent recipe. This tastes better than cookies that are already premade from the store or ones that the dough is already made and all you have to do is bake them. I discovered i had several jars of peanut butter in my closet and wanted to use them before they expire. I used 3/4 cups white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar. i put in about a 1 1/2 cup super chunky peanut butter and a few dashes of cinnamon. They are so easy to make and taste delicious!

These are the most delicious peanut butter cookies I've ever tasted! They are soo yummy! I used to make these cookies with my dad all the time before he passed. I will keep this recipe forever. I actually have a batch of these in the oven right now for a bake sale at a talent show fundraiser for cheerleading. The cookies themselves have no flaws, but this recipe always seem to make around 18 cookies for me, not 12
