Love them! They're my go to. A breeze to make and taste delicious. again, LOVE THEM!!!!!! Im not the best baker by any means and am definitely not experienced, and they always turn out well. :)
I used cassava flour and it worked fine. Also used different sugar and butter and they still turned out wonderful!
Very easy, yet tasty cookies! Whenever we expect company this is my go-to cookie to bake.
I cooked them a little longer. But, other than that the recipe worked out amazing!
Easy and tasty. Needed something to bake without going to supermarket. All ingredients are things you always have on hand. Will definitely make again.
Delicious and very easy recipe. I also doubled the amount of peanut butter to add more flavour. Light and crispy texture - better than any other recipe I've tried.
Very tasty! A local bakery has gluten-free PB which are crispier than these. Any suggestions for variations to this recipe to increase crispness?
Hi Jean, there are a few things you can do to make a crisper cookie. Have dough at room temperature rather than chilled - the dough will spread more as it bakes producing a cookie that is crisper. Press the dough down on a greased cookie sheet rather than leaving the drop cookie in a ball on the sheet. Bake the cookies 1 to 2 minutes longer than what the recipe states, but the cookies may brown quickly so watch them carefully.
