These look delish. I’m thinking dipped in chocolate and with a glass of milk on the side

OH! My Grandma found the same recipe in the newspaper (minus the vanilla and
baking soda) 32 years ago. She clipped to make with my sister and me because it’s so
easy and it’s the only pb cookie recipe we’ve ever made. Adding choc. chips makes them
even yummier!

i’m so late to the game, but just wanted to say that these were awesome! i halved the batch, and i’m so glad i did because my cookies spread a lot, but in a great way! i probably got carried away with the fork smooshing or maybe it was because i added maple syrup & chocolate chips. either way, they’re delicious and sooo easy! thank YOU! keep up all the lovely work on this site, the podcast, high straightenence and life!
