-as it stands, the peanut cookies are not peanutty enough! My second 'half-batch' was done with double the peanut butter (crunchy), brown sugar/wholemeal flour only & margarine instead of Crisco... try it; (I tend to throw in chopped dark chocolate, dried fruit, nuts or anything lying around)

I just made these cookies...They are WONDERFUL....I used splenda brown sugar and splenda granulated also as i have pre diabetes. I also used smart start magarine and left out the part about rolling them in sugar baked them for 10 min and they are ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!! Thanks so much for the recipe!!!

This is the best peanut butter cookie ever. The only thing I did differently was used half butter and half crisco. I won a blue ribbon at the fair. This dough keeps very well in fridge if you don't want to bake all the cookies at once.

YUM! This takes the place of my old recipe. I love these cookies..Words to discribe them: Chewy inside, crunchier outside, flatter, light colored, peanut buttery!! 
Everything i've been looking for, where have you been all my life!? Thanks!
