I switched over to natural brands a few years ago, and for the most part have adapted most of my recipes to use natural.  Natural peanut butter doesn&#8217;t have the additional fat and sugar in it that regular brands do, so sometimes the result can be quite different.  I bought some regular peanut butter a few months ago, to use in a recipe I ended up not liking, so today I am using up the rest of the jar and this is the perfect recipe for that.  It&#8217;s a recipe I&#8217;ve used for years, and I am not sure where I got it originally, but it bursts with peanut flavor, and isn&#8217;t too sweet.  Next time, I&#8217;ll try it with natural and let you know how it works out, but for now, we&#8217;ll go back to the good old days and Skippy.<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients<br \/>\n1 cup peanut butter<br \/>\n1 cup butter<br \/>\n1 cup light brown sugar<br \/>\n1 cup granulated sugar<br \/>\n2 eggs<br \/>\n2 &#038; 3\/4 cups all purpose flour<br \/>\n1 &#038; 1\/2 teaspoons baking soda<br \/>\n1 t baking powder<br \/>\n1\/2 teaspoon salt<br \/>\n2 cups shelled, roasted and chopped peanuts<\/p>\n<p>Cream together the peanut butter, butter and sugars, until light and fluffy.  Beat in the eggs.  In a smaller bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, until completely combined and then mix into the wet mixture.  Mix in the peanuts.  Line baking sheets with parchment and using a small cookie scoop [1&#038;1\/2 teaspoons], portion dough onto the sheets, leaving an inch and a half between them.  Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes, turning pans half way through and remove to a wire rack to cool.  Makes about 100 small cookies.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/pbcfinal.jpg\" alt=\"very peanutty cookies\" title=\"very peanutty cookies\" width=\"600\" height=\"411\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3894\" srcset=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/pbcfinal.jpg 600w, http:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/pbcfinal-150x102.jpg 150w, http:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/pbcfinal-300x205.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>They are a luscious indulgence, that thankfully, freezes well, so you can put some away for another day.    <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t usually use regular peanut butter in anything anymore.
