Grandma's Peanut Butter Cookies

"My Grandma and Mom made these cookies often when I was growing up and I have been making them for my kids for 20 years! I have tried many other peanut butter cookie recipes, but this one is still our favorite. Crispy, but a light texture . . . they almost melt in your mouth!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Hi! My name is Lisa and I live in the most North-Eastern corner of Oregon . . . about 40 miles from Washington and 70 miles from Idaho (as the crow flies). I am an antique junkie and sell full-time on eBay and Etsy. I love sewing and crafting and I have a pretty pink office-hobby room in my 1914 Farm House. I love yard sales, Spring days, fresh garden vegetables, Christmas, 4th of July and discovering my Ancestry. I don't like people who argue about politics or religion. I love to share recipes and cook with my family. My husband is an avid hunter and I am always looking for new ways to cook game and fowl.
