This is a great cookie that my Mother made and our family has been making them ever since. Mom was a great cook and I loved to watch her make her home made bread and cookies. There was three of us girls that used to help her with the canning and baking, and we have a lot of great memories with our Mother.

Ingredients

1 c each - peanut butter, white sugar, packed brown sugar, butter flavored crisco
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
2 c flour
sugar for rolling cookies

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. In a large bowl, cream the sugars, peanut butter and C Crisco until fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time and blend thoroughly after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
2. Sift flour, soda and salt together, and add to the peanut butter mixture. Mix well. Using my cookie scoop ( about 1 tablespoon size ) roll into balls and then roll in sugar - place on baking sheet and bake for 12 - 15 minutes. Mine took 12 minutes.
3. Remove from sheet to cooling racks. Enjoy! They are wonderful!

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will taste. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality chocolate chips. Choosing high-quality vanilla extract, such as pure vanilla extract, can make a significant difference in the flavor of the cookies.
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the dough, which will make the cookies lighter and more tender.
Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help to firm it up, which will make it easier to handle and will also help the cookies to hold their shape better in the oven.
Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at a temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Baking the cookies at too high of a temperature will cause them to brown too quickly and the edges become overdone before the centers are cooked.
Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: The cookies will continue to cook as they cool, so it's important to let them cool completely before storing them. This will help to prevent them from becoming too soft or crumbly.

Conclusion:

These are just a few tips for making delicious Mom's Cookies. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect cookies every time. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
