Authentic American Peanut Butter Cookies
When it comes to cookies that have been a staple in America for ages, peanut butter cookies are at the top. This is a golden recipe with a crispy and crumbly texture.
The story behind this recipe
My husband loves peanut butter so much that he would eat it straight from the spoon as a dessert. I wanted him to enjoy it in a more proper way, so I decided to make cookies. I used an American recipe as a reference and cut the sugar in half.
