RUTH'S PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Ruth's Peanut Butter Cookies image

This is my mom's recipe that she has been using since she was first married 60 years ago. I have searched thru all of the popular recipes here and this one is just a bit different.....most use only brown sugar or have both sugars but then don't use both baking powder and baking soda. I've never had these cookies turn out wrong and they freeze so well. Whether they get reviewed or not, I know I'll be making them for years to come and now I know they are safe here.

RUTH'S CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Ruth's Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies image

My mom used this recipe when I was a teenager and I've been making them since then. I love the background flavor of the peanut butter and love that it is not an overwhelming flavor of the cookie. Make sure to store in an airtight container. **Note 2/2010 - I have adjusted the amount of cookies you'll receive - this recipe makes 5 dozen cookies not 4.

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
