Horrible! I learned my lesson, read reviews before choosing a recipe. The worst thing about this recipe is the fact that it claims to be for peanut butter lovers and there is so little peanut butter in the cookies that they taste like sugar cookies. YUK!

I think it's the best butter cookie recipe in the world. WONDERFUL! I made these cookies for my brother and his wife who are taking a trip by car, to Florida.

I WISH I HAD READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE I STARTED. BUT ONCE I GOT TO THE "ADD 3 TABLESPOONS OF VANILLA" I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG. THEN I WENT TO THE COMPUTER AND READ THE REVIEWS. WELL I WAS ABLE TO SALVAGE THE RECIPE. I ONLY ADDED 3 TEASPOONS OF VANILLA AND I ADDED 1 TEASPOON OF BAKING POWDER(NOT SODA) AND I DID ADD AN ADDITIONAL 3/4 CUP PEANUT BUTTER. I JUST TOOK THEM OUT OF THE OVEN AND THEY WERE PRETTY GOOD, NICE AND CRISP AND MELTED IN MY MOUTH. I MAY DO WHAT THE OTHER REVIEWER DID AND ADD CHOCOLATE TO THE TOP. I WOULD HOPE THAT ANYONE WHO READS 3 TABLESPOONS OF VANILLA OR BAKING SODA WOULD STOP AND THINK ABOUT THAT FIRST. SOMEONE CAN'T TYPE. I DO THANK THE REVIEWERS FOR BEING SO HONEST, AT LEAST I DID NOT HAVE TO THROW IT AWAY!!!

This recipe is horrible. It has way too much vanilla and not enough peanut butter. I used almost a full bottle of vanilla. After making the first batch, which turned out like individual cakes, I threw everything away. The batter is rather good, but the cookies are horrible. Its more like a cake batter recipe than cookies. Neither my husband nor my child would eat them. They left a horrible taste in our mouths. I would definitely not recommend anyone make these, its a waste of time, money and ingredients.

if scaled down to 10 servings - cookies become very big, still don't taste the peanut butter..

TOTALLY AWFUL COOKIES!!!I unfortunately was almost done with the recipe when I read the reviews (over the last 6 mo.)and all but one say the cookies are awful. I suspect it's the vanilla and baking soda (should be teaspoon).

My cookies actually turned out, but only because i did not follow this recipe. I used less baking soda (a scant tablespoon), and 1 teaspoon vanilla. I also had to add more flour, and the recipe needed salt, which it did not call for. Had i followed the recipe like it was written, im sure my cookies would have ended up in the garbage.

Better butter cookies are the most awful things I've ever made and I've been cooking for over 50 years. A complete waste of ingridents. With a 3 star review one would think it would be alright to try. "DON'T"!!! You never put 3 Tablespoons of vanilla or 1 Tablespoon soda in a batch of cookies. I was off my branch to try these. Don't make the same mistake. Pinky

Yuck! I was REALLY hungry for some good peanut butter cookies. My wife and daughter weren't home so I decided to get a recipe off of Allrecipes.com and make them myself. Boy, did I ever pick the wrong recipe!!! I was in a hurry so I could surprise them and made the mistake of not reading the reviews. These cookies were terrible!!!! I followed the recipe exactly as it was printed. When my 7-year old daughter (who, of course, LOVES cookies)took one bite and then offered the rest of her cookie to my wife, I knew they were bad. My wife said, "No, Thanks" and my daughter said, "Please take it!" I'll have to agree that it was a waste of ingredients and time. My wife mentioned the aftertaste that they left. From now on I will read the reviews before trying a recipe.

Too much baking soda, not enough flour and not enough peanut butter! I reviewed all the other comments about this recipe before I entered my comments and most of them were very similar to what I had thought, I had also thrown all the dough out and wasted my ingridients.

they turned out great... the second time when I realized I should only use one TEASPOON baking soda to get rid of the bitterness.

I followed the recipe exactly and was very disappointed. Left an awful taste in my mouth and my husband said it tasted like something was missing. Very disappointing. What a waste of ingredients and time. Not a great turn out especially when your craving real peanut butter cookies.

Good. Not the best, but good. The 1-2-3 recipe is also good, but if you refridge the batter, and coat with chocolate, you have a butterfinger on your hand. Yummy. A good try...if you are hungry.
