Kaylee’s Peanut Butter Cookies
One of the greatest advantages of homeschooling is that it allows plenty of time for following personal interests. Thanks to this extra free time, Kaylee is becoming an excellent baker. She is especially skilled in making really delicious cookies. In fact, the boys often request her “Famous Chocolate Chip Cookies” by name. 🙂
Unfortunately, I can’t share the Famous Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe with you, because I don’t have it. Really, I don’t! I promise to ask Kaylee for it soon! In the meantime, I’d love to share her peanut butter cookie recipe with you.
These peanut butter cookies are quite possibly the best I’ve ever eaten. Kaylee started with a recipe that called for peanut butter chips and substituted an equal amount of peanut butter. The result is a rich and perfectly chewy peanut butter cookie.
