I know what you're thinking right now... "Did I read that title correctly? Surely, making cookies can't be that simple!" Well, buck up and pay attention, my friend! And don't call me "Shirley". Because I ain't foolin' around here! Who knew that making cookies could require so little work and resources? It's usually a bit of a pain, I realize that. Just for a simple chocolate chip cookie recipe, you have to cream butter and sugar to the right consistency. You have to make sure your ratio between liquid and dry ingredients is correct to avoid disaster in the oven. There are so many things that can go wrong when making cookies from scratch. But fear not, weary bakers! This recipe is (literally) as easy as 1...2...3!
And the result? How do I even begin to describe these scrumptious morsels?
Rich yet fluffy.
Crispy yet chewy.
Complex yet simple.
The luscious flavors of peanut buttery goodness will fill your mouth, causing an explosion of ecstasy you never thought could be achieved by a mere cookie. And just when you think it is over, you will find yourself reaching for another. And another. Until you remember nothing of the life you led before you entered the heavenly peanut butter palace built by these cookies.
...too dramatic?
Well, these sweet treats garner quite a reaction from my taste buds. I just can't help it! Try these for yourself! And watch my baking vloggity to see exactly how I react, if you still can't decide if you want to make some or not :)
