AARON'S MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
From "One Smart Cookie" book. These are possibly the easiest and peanut-butteriest cookies you'll ever make! Because they contain no flour there is no danger of overmixing the dough, which makes them ideal for young cooks as well as these with a gluten intolerance. You can use all white or all brown sugar instead of using both if you like.
