I lost my old peanut butter cookie recipe so I used this one. I was disappointed. These cookies came out too crispy for my tastes - I would have preferred something chewier. Also, the dough was not very thick so I couldn't put the traditional fork lines on the cookie. (Little things like that mean something to me.) All in all, it was just a mediocre cookie, not great but certainly not bad. I won't use this recipe again.

This cookie batter is so good that I only made one batch of actual cookies and ate the dough for the rest of the week! Since I like my cookies soft, I took the advice of other posters and used half brown sugar and half maple syrup. I also added some baking powder and milk and increased the pb. Then I baked for 12 mins at 350. The only thing I will change for next time will be to add more coconut. Fantastic!

I used a similar recipe. I made the following substitutions - Instead of rolling the balls in coconut flakes, I used confectionary sugar. Instead of brown sugar I used maple syrup. I also baked them on a stone. I baked them for appx. 13-14 minutes on 350. They came out perfect and stayed soft. Any thoughts if this was caused by the maple syrup?

This recipe is ok as it is, however the cookies come out very flat and a little crunchy. I add 1/2 cup of flower, and 1/2 cup of peanut butter, then cook at 350 for 10 min. This makes for a light soft and VERY tasty cookie!

I thought these were just okay, kind of flat and crispy even. My mom thought they were the best peanut butter cookie she has ever had though, I will compromise and give them a 4.

I didn't mean to add anything to an already perfect recipe, but I couldn't resist using crunchy peanut butter and adding a 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate morsels... and it still came out to be a 5-star favorite in our home! So easy and so good -- with or without the morsels -- completely different tastes but both so perfect!

this recipe only serves as a guideline for me, but it's very helpful. I personally leave out the coconut flakes every time i bake these cookies, and i always add 1 or 2 teaspoons of milk into the batter. I like my cookies soft, and the milk and minimum baking time does the trick.

These were okay not alot of pb flavor and you couldn't taste the coconut at all which was why I tried this recipe. I also found these to be really greasy and the next day really crunchy. I prefer mine to be soft in the middle. Overall it was ok but I don't think I would make them again.

Full of flavor. I followed this recipe exactly with 2 exceptions. I used chunky peanut butter and lowered the oven temp to 350. They browned up perfect in 12 minutes. They turned out a little flatter than a typical pb cookie, but taste delicious. The coconut makes this recipe special. Moist and full of flavor. I got 4 dozen big cookies.

These cookies were a big hit! Especially with my roommates who had never tried peanut butter before. This recipe makes a lot of dough so I refrigerated the dough I didnt use, and made more mini-batches throughout the week. I used chunky peanut-butter, and they were wonderful.

I don't know what everybody is doing wrong because these cookies are just perfect the way they are. If you don't like coconut than try another recipe that is designed without it, obviously this recipe was not meant to ommit it so of course they would be crunchy. I always use parchment paper when making cookies, there's nothing like baking with it so maybe that would be of some help. And also make sure to use high quality peanut butter, cheap stuff will make it taste just that. Using a medium scoop to make larger cookies also works well. There is nothing wrong with this recipe!

This recipe is awesome!! My boyfriend is super picky about what he eats. But he LOVES these cookies!! Peanut butter cookies were always a favorite of his, but these are his favorite cookies-period! The second time I baked them I doubled the peanut butter and the coconut. I also made some with raisins and almonds for a good, different flavor and texture. mMmMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!! Thank you, I Love this site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These were not good. I followed the recipe exactly except for omitting the coconut and they came out fairly hard and flat. The flavor was OK, but I prefer soft, chewy cookies.
