I just pulled my last batch of these out of the oven and I can't stop eating them. I am going to be making another batch I had to post the review first. This is the easiest peanut butter cookie recipe ever. I like that they are so moist and chewy. This is a definate keeper in our house, I will be these often. Thanks so much for posting Anita, it is a great recipe.

Yes, this is a good peanut butter cookie recipe. They are what they say - moist & chewy. I will not cook with vegetable oil such as crisco. I substitute extra light olive oil or real unsalted butter. For my first try using this recipe I substituted extra light olive oil for the crisco. I used dark brown sugar. For the peanut butter I use the all natural peanut butter kind (read the labels folks - just peanuts and salt, that's all I want.) When I make them again - and I will - I will cut back on the salt, probably take it to barely 1/2 teaspoon. Thank you ; )
