Yesterday, I talked about how the cookie crumbles in marriage.
Today, I will only talk about these delectable peanut butter cookies and how they crumble oh-so-fabulously in your mouth.
Honestly, this is the best peanut butter cookie recipe I have ever tried. I wish I could remember where I found it ~ perhaps Martha ~ but I couldn’t find anything like it on her site. I don’t know the origin but I do know this:
- They smell amazing when you’re baking them. Aroma fills the whole house …
- They are so peanut-buttery that they taste incredibly healthy.
- The dough is guilt-free! Did you hear that? No eggs in this recipe ~ eat away!
- They’re great baked up with a tall glass of milk or unbaked rolled up in tiny pieces and smushed in chocolate ice cream.
- This.is.the.best.peanut.butter.cookie.recipe.ever.
Enjoy!
