Peanut Butter Cookies


My stepmum gave me this recipe for Christmas, which is brilliant! These cookies are so tasty, Daz, who doesn't like sweet things, likes them, and Heather, who doesn't like peanut butter, likes them. 


Ingredients
125g butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon lemon rind
1/3 cup caster sugar
1/3 cup light brown muscovado sugar (lightly packed)
1/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 and 1/4 cups plain flour
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda




Method
Preheat oven to 180 degrees
1. Cream together the butter, lemon rind, sugars and peanut butter.
2. Sieve in the flour and bicarbonate of soda and work in using a wooden spoon. This should create quite a breadcrumby dough. 


3. Roll heaped teaspoons of dough into small balls and place on a greased baking tray.
4. Press biscuits down lightly with a fork, first crosswise then lengthwise to create a crinkled effect.


5. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until lightly browned, then allow to cool on a wire rack.
