How handy. Over the past few years, I have been searching (in a desultory sort of way) for chewy peanut butter cookies.

Question: does your peanut butter have sugar, etc in it already or are you using peanut butter made from just roasted peanuts and salt?

Simple is always good, especially as we are heading into May's Eat Local Challenge. (Load up on peanut butter before then, though. I don't think we have a local peanut crop!)

wait, where's the salt?

I used Jif which does have some sugar in it. I've always read that you shouldn't use natural peanut butters in baking.

Shuna, I know it doesn't follow those baking rules! I was surprised and had to keep my paws from the salt. But I think there's enough natural sodium in the PB. I'm telling you they were pretty darn tasty!

Okay. I'm afraid I'm incapable of buying peanut butter with sugar, etc in it so I'll just add a little extra sugar. (I wonder why the thing you read said not to use natural peanut butters. That doesn't really make sense to me.) And is there really no flour?

You know I looked for the why and I think it's because it's not thick enough (the PB). If you try them I'd be interested in your results.

Jeanne, I would like to try them. Our peanut butter (just roasted peanuts and salt) strikes me as being exactly the same consistency as peanut butter that has all those additives.

Did you really not put flour in the cookie dough?

-Elizabeth

jeanne

Really! There's no flour--different, eh?

ejm

Yes, indeed, very different if they have no flour!!
