Our Favorite Peanut Butter Cookies



Ever since I first tried it, this has become my go-to Peanut Butter Cookie recipe. They are so fast to throw together and only make 2 dozen or so and so are quite manageable. In the picture they were for a preschool Valentine's Day party and so I drizzled some melted semi-sweet chocolate on top (because Valentine's Day treats HAVE to have chocolate, don't you think?). Usually they look like normal peanut butter cookies with the little criss-cross marks. Yummy! Make them, you'll like them!
