I don't like to brag, but I do make the best peanut butter cookies. I've tried many recipes over the years, and I keep coming back to this one. It's from the Good Housekeeping book, and I'm going to share it with you.
Ingredients:
2 & 1/4 cups flour
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2/3 cup honey
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1/2 tsp baking powder (apparently baking soda works too, since that's what I used this last time by accident)
Preheat the oven to 350. You can just mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl, but I prefer to mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder/soda) together in a smaller bowl first. Mix everything else in the large bowl, then dump the flour mix in. Shape the dough into 1-2 inch balls and place them 2-3 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Dip a fork in flour and press it across the top of each ball in both directions. Bake them in the oven for 15 minutes. My oven runs hot, so they only need 10 minutes. These cookies are not good if they're in too long, so I suggest starting them at 10 minutes & increase as needed. They'll just start to turn golden at the edges when they're done.
