I loved this recipe! It really did make a soft and chewy peanut butter cookie. I only baked mine for 14 1/2 minutes, 18 minutes was too long. Maybe my oven runs a little warm. You do not need to do the criss cross pattern, this cookie spreads like other cookies. I was able to get 24, 1 oz. scoops on a baking half sheet. They didn't touch and came out perfectly. I am eager to try again but maybe with some mini chocolate chips, YUM!

I am giving this recipe a 5 star rating because they are delicious cookies and do come out soft and chewy! I have only made them once so far, and here are my suggestions on this recipe. Do not leave the cookies in the oven too long. Go with only 18 minutes or slighly less. If you leave them in too long they become crunchy. Add more peanut butter if you like a more peanuty buttery taste. Or try adding some candies as mentioned in another review. These cookies do turn out flat, so give them plenty of space to spread out on the cookie sheet. I would not press the criss cross with the fork on the cookie, since that flattens the cookie too much. One more thing, if you like a sweeter cookie, roll the dough balls in sugar prior to baking. I did that to half of my batch and they were excellent that way too! Enjoy!

They turned into rocks a few minutes after taking them out of the oven. I think it might be because I used reduced fat peanut butter. I'll try the good stuff next time.

These cookies are AMAZING, and just like what you would get at a Mrs. Fields at the mall. They are very chewy, and I liked the flavor fine. In addressing the negative reviews: the size of your cookie matters! My first batch was chewier because they were bigger. If your cookies are too small, they will get crunchier faster, so you should check them after about 15 minutes to see. They should be just barely brown on the edges. Also, if you leave them on the pan for a long time after taking them out, they will continue to cook a bit, making them a little crunchier. Do not leave them on the hot pan very long, but instead remove them onto a cool surface. These cookies are big, chewy, thin peanut butter cookies; not big fat cake-like cookies.

These cookies were very disappointing. They don't really taste like peanut butter cookies or look like peanut butter cookies. I followed the recipe exactly and would highly recommend NOT making these.

These cookies turned out terrific. I made a few changes in that I used splenda brown AND splenda white sugar. they were plenty sweet. almost too sweet so I would cut the splenda down just a tad. I also added choc chips to them.. so yummy!

These are the best peanut butter cookies!! When I make them, I chill the dough for about an hour so that I can form it into balls more easily. I also only cook them for 16 minutes- they come out perfect!

I normally don't like Peanut Butter cookies because they're so hard and dry. But these are wonderful!! Moist, chewy, and very peanut butter-y. And very easy to make. I'll never use another peanut butter cookie recipe! This is a definite keeper!

This is the best recipe yet! I followed recipe expcept I refrigerated the dough for about 30 minutes. I used my Pampered Chef cookie scoop to create perfect sized balls. I rolled each ball in sugar. I baked them for about 19 minutes and pressed candied cherries in some, (husbands request) and hershey kisses in the rest. DELICIOUS! Moist and picture perfect! I disagree with others. I thought they had the perfect amount of pb.

This is a vey good recipe. I left mine on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes, then moved to wire rack. A bit dissapointed in how thin they turned out though. I would have added 1/4c of extra peanut butter! other than that, great recipe!!!

Yummy yummy cookies. I ate so much batter I didn't eat a cookie until today. Anyways the cookies are chewy and good today. My batter was fine, fluffy almost like icing. I have a few old school cookie rec. from my Gram and the batter is the same texture so maybe I'm used to it. Will def. make these again. I added aprox 1/4 C extra PB (I think good quality PB is a must for taste - and they won't be oily) and PB chips. Probably didn't need the extra PB but from reviews I added it. Def. will add the chips again though. Thank you for a great recipe! Mine took the 22 minutes to bake and cooled partially on sheet before placing on rack - made big nice cookies! Oh- I didnt' do the fork criss/cross and they spread while bakeing. Cheers!

This is the best peanut butter cookie recipe I've ever made! They are exactly what they say, "soft and chewy". Recipes I've tried before don't compare to these. Great Recipe!

this recipe is great. i even had to substitute white sugar for the brown sugar (we're broke right now, and out of brown sugar). i was really concerned that they would turn out terrible w/o the brown sugar, but they turned out great! crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. they are oily, but in the best way!

This is the best peanut butter cookie I've had, and my husband, who doesn't like peanut butter cookies, actually likes these. I think they're usually too crumbly, so the chewiness of these really helps. I do have to say that as I am concerned with nutrition and want my kids to be able to eat these, I made some changes: replace white flour with freshly-ground (and finely ground) whole wheat flour (usually I use Summer's Sprouted flours), replace the brown and white sugar (2.5 c total) with 1.5 c of Rapadura, and then because there's less sugar to add structure, I reduce the number of eggs from 3 to 2 (always pastured, free-range, as organic as possible eggs, of course). Since my butter is also raw from pastured cows, I have guilt-free cookies that are DELICIOUS! I roll the dough up in parchment paper, store in the fridge, and then slice off 1/4 to 1/2" thick rounds and bake them for 20 to 22 minutes (depending on how big around they are).

I agree with another reviewer...these cookies were not "peanut buttery" enough. They had good texture, but were lacking flavor.

I thought these were delicious! They're different from your typical pnut butter cookies but they were good. I only had to put mine in for 19 mins to get the perfect chewiness w/the crispy edges. I chilled my batter which made it alot easier to deal with. I would suggest the same to everyone else. Am definitely keeping this in my recipe box!

If you like peanut butter I wouldn't make these unless you're giving them away. I upped the flour by 1/4c and the PB by 1/4c also. The texture seems too soft when you go to bake them but they turn out soft and kind of on the thin side once they bake up. I like peanut butter a little too much so I kept one cookie to try and gave the rest away so I wouldn't eat them all.

These cookies were fantastic. It really helps to refrigerate the dough before baking because the dough is quite liquidy. Also, make sure to let them cool before stacking them or they meld together. They were delicious.
