ICE BOX PEANUT BUTTER SHORTBREAD COOKIES
These are a great alternative to having store bought slice and bake cookies in your fridge without the preservatives and big price tag. These only cost a few dollars to make!! They are not your typical peanut butter cookie. They cook to be thin, crisp and oh so yummy!!

ICE BOX PEANUT BUTTER SHORTBREAD COOKIES
Having searched for the best peanut butter cookie this recipe was my creation. You can use vegetable shortening but the texture and taste is very different from my shortbread version. The dough freezes well and you can have fresh baked cookies at anytime. Who can resist a buttery peanut butter cookie that melts in your mouth? Melt some chocolate chips and drizzle on top, sprinkle with chopped peanuts or coconut for a Holiday Cookie variety.
