Beat together until fluffy -

Beat in -
2 egg yolks, 1 tsp. vanilla

Whisk together-
2 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 tsp. baking powder, 1/4 tsp. salt

Stir into butter mixture, chill for a bit.

Roll into balls, roll in sugar, flatten up with fork.

Bake at 350 12-15 mins.

1. I've found a new recipe that I bake with my grandsons.

1 C. peanut butter
1 egg
1 C. sugar

Mix together, roll into balls, flatten with a fork and bake at 350F for 8 minutes. Be careful not to overbake these. They make a crispy cookie.

7. My confession about the three ingredient peanut butter cookies...

I can't remember if the recipe was posted in the old C&B forum or somewhere else but I decided to try them. Three ingredients only, what could be easier? - hooray!

But because I am me and I get easily distracted, I made them with only two ingredients...left out the egg.

They worked just fine and my kids ate them. I fed them baked peanut butter and sugar.

8. If that's the worst mistake you make with your kids, count yourself lucky.

As long as the kids enjoyed them. . . .

9. Wow, thank you.

Mom loves peanut butter cookies and we're always looking for new recipes to try.

2. Both recipes sound good. I miss peanut butter!

Peanuts are another one of those things that I can't tolerate anymore...

3. Recipes that call for egg yolks only, or egg whites only--

--drive me straight up the wall. I just can't stand disposing of either, and our last furball died 6 years ago.

Other than that, the recipe sounds really good.

4. Um...furball?

Make an egg white omelet?

5. Furball to feed leftovers to

I'll google the eggwhite omelet--never heard of such a thing before.
