While having a hankering for some delicious cookies, I decided to whip up a lovely, chewy peanut butter cookie.
Again, because those were the ingredients I had available.
I wanted to add a little crunch to the cookies (peanuts), but since I was out, I did add roasted, chopped almonds, and it turned out great.
The recipe is incredibly easy from betty Crocker, and rest assured, it is delicious!
