These definitely are amazing! I added about 2 tsp of organic cocoa powder and 1 tbsp of flax seeds. I also used whole wheat flour and added 2 tsp of plain soy milk. They're fantastic...

This recipe is so easy and quick! I haven't had peanut butter cookies in years and these taste just how I remember. I will be making these again in the future for sure. Thank you!

Fabulous cookies!!! I was somewhat lacking ingredients (due to remote location and empty cupboards) so I used regular yogurt, granulated white sugar, extra magarine instead of shortening, and added chopped nuts to make up the amount of peanut butter required. They were yummy, and not too sweet. Thanks T_Wise!

I really like these cookies! I wasn't looking for a vegan recipe, so I used all the dairy equivalents. I increased the yogurt to 1/3 cup and baked them for 10 minutes. My family liked that they are soft and chewy instead of crunchy or dry. This is exactly what I've been looking for in a peanut butter cookie. Thanks!
