OLD-FASHIONED PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Old-Fashioned Peanut Butter Cookies image

My mother insisted that my grandmother write down one recipe for her when Mom got married in 1942: the how to make peanut butter cookies from scratch recipe. That was a real effort because Grandma was a traditional pioneer-type cook who used a little of this or that until it felt right. This treasured recipe is the only one she ever wrote down! -Janet Hall, Clinton, Wisconsin
