Cookies!

Yes more cookies. I haven't been able to do anything lately with the dumb job of mine, but this is my last week! I'm so excited! So the most exciting thing that I have been able to do is cook some cookies. Mostly chocolate chip, but since we were running low on brown sugar and chocolate chips I went for some peanut butter ones this time. They aren't your regular peanut butter cookies either, no shortening, just good old butter, and since it did call for brown sugar I used what I had left and then supplemented the rest with honey, it makes them taste oh so delicious!


The recipe is really easy: Just a 1/2 of everything and then a little more for the flour.

1/2 c. butter or margarine
1/2 c. peanut butter
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar or if using honey only 1/4 c.
1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 t. vanilla
1 egg
1 1/4 c. flour
and some extra sugar

Mix the butter and peanut butter together first. (since I don't have an electric mixer i cheated and melted mine for 20 sec. in the microwave and then stirred!). Then add the sugars, or honey, baking powder and soda in. Then your egg and vanilla. Then your flour (I only did half the recipe and i needed to add a little more flour so you might for a real batch too). Then roll into 1 in balls and roll in the sugar. Flatten with a fork and then 7-9 min at 375*. I used the rest of my chocolate chips and melted them in a double boiler and then put it on the cookies. So Good!
