In reply to Trevor. Yay! I'm so glad you love them! Good luck with the gluten-free version!

Made a second batch gluten free, turned out perfect but had to chill the dough as the consistency was thinner than with regular flour. Final results were excellent.

Made these this morning, didn’t have any vanilla left so left it out. Absolutely the best peanut butter cookies ever. Going to try now with gluten free flour for the other half. I’ll let you know how they turn out.

In reply to Anna Kissenbeck. I haven't, but I think you can freeze just about any homemade cookie, so I'm assuming you could freeze these as well.

Hmmm, they definitely shouldn’t have spread like that, but it’s hard for me to know where you went wrong. One of the most common reasons for cookies spreading too much is becuase the butter was melted instead of softened. Here are some other reasons cookies spread too much: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/tips-for-cookie-spreading/

What did I do wrong? The cookies are tasty but they spread so much in the oven that you can’t see the fork marks!! They are so thin

Help!

These cookies are great! I am 10 and I used Adam’s dark roasted peanut butter instead of the normal one and it turned out great. I would totally recommend.

In reply to Twyla Murray. Sorry they didn't turn out as they should, Twyla. Since you say there was hardly any peanut butter taste, I'm guessing you didn't add the required amount of peanut butter. 1 cup of peanut butter is what the recipe calls for, and what most peanut butter recipes call for. Even Kraft's own PB cookie recipe calls for that amount. If the amount of PB you added was less than what was called for, that could definitely result in your cookies going hard as well.

Loved these! Made them exactly as recipe said and they are delicious! Perfect combo of crisp on outside and chewy on the inside!

I just made these cookies, and they’re a hit!!, I only added 1/2 cup of each sugar, and only 2 cups of flour, and they’re soo soft, and delicious, thanks for the recipe!

In reply to Jacquie. Hi Jacquie, sorry you're having troubles. If you made them Saturday and they turned out as they should, but they're not this time, I really don't know what might be causing the problem. My best guess is that you may have mis-measured something this time around?

In reply to Melpomeni Varahidis. I just use regular peanut butter, Varahidis, so I imagine it would be salted.

Is the peanut butter: salted? sweetened? if I used roasted peanut butter, will it make a difference?

love these – put 1/2 cup less white sugar and turned out great.
Also use real natural peanut butter – yum!

These were great. I chopped up some honey roasted peanuts and mixed them in the dough. I always use golden yellow sugar but I’d like to try these with dark brown because a little molasses can be a nice touch to peanut butter cookies. My only suggestion is maybe include the yield in the recipe. Not that I’m complaining about having 54 delicious cookies to show off to my friends.
