This is a great cookie. I added and additional 1/8 cup of shortening because my mixture seemed to be too crumbly. Next time I would add more peanut butter instead of more shortening to get more peanut flavor. I used the butter flavored Crisco to give it a more buttery taste. Excellent recipe

This cookie turned out great, however, personally, I might back off on the sugar. My 13-year-old daughter and my mother in law, both sweet freaks, loved this cookie. I am developing a different palate and thought the cookie was a bit sweet. The composition of the cookie turned out fine. I do admit though, my Kitchen Aide always makes fine batter. My wife told me to use the paddle attachment when making a batter.

I gave this recipe 4 stars because of the texture- these are chewy soft peanut butter cookies! Next time I will definitely add a bit more peanut butter because I didn't think they were quite peanut buttery enough- but I will definitely use this recipe from now on with only that modification.

I did not care for this recipe. The batter was far too crumbly and the cookies baked up on the hard side. The second batch I altered the ingredients so that I used 1/4 cup less flower and I split the sugar so that I used 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar. This made the cookies more enjoyable...although I think the peanut butter needs to be increased as well. Simply put, start from a better recipe and skip this one.

These were fantastic. Not sure why others had such a problem with them being dry. Mine came out moist and delicious. The only thing I did different was used no salt added peanut butter but I added a 1/4 tsp extra of salt to compensate. Thanks for a great easy recipe Amy!

These were excellent!! My husband is very picky but he loved these. Him and my son gobbled these up. If you like a lot of PB in your cookies then you should add a little more than the recipe calls for but I thought the amount was just right.

I doubled the amount of peanut butter and it was still too crumbly. This did taste like a peanut butter cookie but not a recipe that I will make again.

After reading the reviews, I decided to also add an extra half a cup of peanut butter. I made half the batch pressing down with a folk and the remaining by pressing into shape using fingers. The 2nd batch didn't crack at the sides when baked and where less crumbly when eating. The cookies tasted deliceous and I will definetely make these again. Thank you.

Before baking them, they were so clumpy and falling apart, and my "fork" deco was not good, but suprisingly they were pretty good. We enjoyed the flavor.

These cookies were a bit dry, but not so bad that we needed to alter the recipe. We made them at Christmas time and had pizza delivered. We had the delivery driver try one and he thought they were great. We also topped some of them with Resse Pieces candies. A nice treat!

I added a little extra peanut butter and did half shortening, half butter... It worked out beautifullY!! I may consider a touch of cinnamon in the next batch. I used parchment paper instead of greasing the cookie sheets. It allows you to move fast because you have less clean up.
