Crunchy Peanut Butter Cookies image

After many trials, this is the best peanut butter cookie I've tasted. Just a bit different than many of the others but the shortening used does make for a different cookie; crisp and crunchie. As with all hand-formed cookies, kids love to make them.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe by half.

These cookies are a bit too dense for my taste. I would recommend adding a little more flour to the recipe.
