{camp cozy} brings out the crazy baking lady in me.
last night, the mood struck and i really wanted to whip up something sweet in the kitchen.
alas, it was the night before a grocery trip and we were out of most goods required for baking.
except for peanut butter.
and flour.
and a few other staples that ended up as...
...the best peanut butter cookies i have ever made.
(this is the highest quality photo i could manage before these warm beauties were whisked away into the hands of waiting friends.)
fluffy, cakey, moist, salty, sweet, and rolled in sugar.
even though it's not such a traditional holiday cookie, it totally rocked around the christmas tree.
baking notes:
* i used smooth peanut butter + skipped the chips altogether.
* i forgot to do the fork criss-cross pattern on the second round and they looked like chocolate crinkle cookies in terms of texture...i liked this look even more than the criss-cross, but if you're going for old school PB cookies, that pattern is key.
* i ended up baking for a minute longer (13 total) because the first round teetered on the edge of underdone.
