OLD-FASHIONED PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
My mother insisted that my grandmother write down one recipe for her when Mom got married in 1942: the how to make peanut butter cookies from scratch recipe. That was a real effort because Grandma was a traditional pioneer-type cook who used a little of this or that until it felt right. This treasured recipe is the only one she ever wrote down! -Janet Hall, Clinton, Wisconsin

Steps:
- 1. Mix shortening, peanut butter, suagr, brown sugar & egg thoroughly. Gradually blend in flour, baking powder, baking soda & salt. Cover and chill 1 hour.
- 2. Heat oven to 375. Roll dough into 1 inch balls, rolling in sugar before placing on lightly greased baking sheet. Place cookies 2 inches apart.
- 3. Bake 10 minutes or until cookies are set, but not hard.
Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the butter and sugar cream together better and result in a smoother, more even cookie.
- 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. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the baking sheet. This will help the cookies be uniform in size and shape.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown. This will help the cookies stay soft and chewy.
