These are awesome cookies! They are easy and quick to make, and hit the spot. They always go quick at my house. Just make sure not to over cook them

Taste-wise, I'm sure that this is fine. However, the presentation (and being an artist and designer, I'm all about presentation), this cookie fails to look the part. the cookie is too cakey for me and my batch didn't really spread out very much. I made mine with a devils food cake mix (chocolate and pb- can't go wrong there, right?!). I ended up forking the tops of my cookies (similar to a traditional peanut butter cookie). This is my second attempt at using a cake mix for cookies and I believe it will be my last.

I have been making this recipe for years. So easy and definately the best peanut butter cookies I've had! Seems like all of the others tend to be crunchy and these are nice and soft! I make these every few months because they are so good! Try them and you wont be disappointed! Thanks for posting!

Am in the process of making these cookies right now, & I've simply got to review them even before the last ones are cooled. The first 16 cookies are already gone, & the happy smiles tell it all!!! So easy, so great tasting! Just not enough cookies in the recipe, so another time I'll be doubling it! Many thanks.
