Time 1h

Yield 30 cookies, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, softened
1 egg
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Mix sugars, peanut butter, shortening, butter and egg in large bowl.
  • Stir in remaining ingredients.
  • Cover and refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm.
  • Heat oven to 375ºF.
  • Shape dough into 1 1/4-inch balls.
  • Place about 3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten in crisscross pattern with fork dipped into sugar (water works well too).
  • Bake 9 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown.
  • Note: about 1 minute before they are done it helps to lift and bang the sheet on the rack and turn it.
  • Cool 5 minutes; remove from cookie sheet.
  • Cool on a wire rack.
  • Other note: you can use all butter/margarine to replace the shortening and probably would work vice versa as well.
