Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies.

1. Step 1

   Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C) and lay out sheets of foil on your countertop, ready for the warm cookies to cool.

2. Step 2

   In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together brown sugar, Jif peanut butter, Butter Flavor Crisco® shortening, milk, and vanilla extract.

3. Step 3

   Use an electric mixer on medium speed to create a smooth, harmonious mixture.

4. Step 4

   Next, introduce an egg to the bowl and mix just until it’s fully incorporated.

5. Step 5

   In a separate medium bowl, whisk together sifted all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

6. Step 6

   Gradually fold this dry blend into the creamy mixture, mixing on low speed until everything is just combined.

7. Step 7

   Now, scoop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, ensuring they are spaced about 2 inches apart.

8. Step 8

   With the tines of a fork, gently press down on each cookie to create a charming crisscross pattern.

9. Step 9

   Bake one sheet at a time in your preheated oven for 7 to 8 minutes, watching closely as the cookies set and begin to turn golden.
