peanut butter sea salt cookies

sounds good right?

so here is one of my favorite peanut butter cookie recipes:

rosie's peanut butter cookies

1/2 lb. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

1/2 c. granulated sugar

1 1/2 c. packed lt. brown sugar

1 1/2 c. commercial peanut butter (smooth)

2 lg. eggs

1 t. vanilla extract

2 1/2 c. a.p. flour

1 1/2 t. baking soda

1/2 t. salt

*preheat to 350

*cream butter and sugars with whisk attachment on high until fluffy and light. abt. 5 min's.

add p.nut. butter. continue beating on high until incorporated with butter. on low, beat in eggs

one at a time. then add vanilla.

*separate bowl. whisk flour, bak.soda, and salt together. gradually add dry into wet with paddle

attachment or wooden spoon until no flour visible.

*use appropriate size scoop to your liking. i love to use an ice cream scoop so they are all the

same size. press down with heel of your hand (with a bit of flour so your hands dont stick to

dough).

*press with fork going vertically and horizontally.

*bake 18-20 min's for large cookie, 10-12 min's for small cookies.

my version:

sprinkle with this sea salt before baking.

just a smidge. not much.

and this is where the recipe

came from...one of my favorite cook books.



and on a side note:
how cute are those little hands,
all painted hot pink!
thanks vanessa!

now go make some cookies, sit outside with a glass of milk

and soak up this lovely windy weather.
