Fantastic recipe ! A bit too sweet for my taste but that is easily fixed.

I don’t think it would be necessary to add more sugar to the recipe. Jif and Skippy don’t have much more sugar in them than natural peanut butter. They has about 3 grams of sugar per serving, but most natural peanut butters still have about 2 grams per serving. I also don’t recommend using a natural peanut butter where the oil separates from it in this recipe because it will make the cookies greasier.

Thnx Karen! You answered my question… I have same type peanut butter that is unsweetened …did it need any added sugar?

Super hit and perfect the first time making the recipe. Chopped chocolate was a great addition.

I’m making these cookies again. My friends love them. I’m going to try and add some walnuts to the recipe. This recipe is delicious and easy to make.

One word, Amazing!

Made these for the first time today, and wow, absolutely perfect, the best recipe, thank you.

Used mainly crunchy and some smooth peanut butter, 2oo grams, and added about 100grams of left over mixed fruit used in a cake containing cranberries and apricots.

Using your measurements and method they turned out absolutely on the money, soft and delicious.

Thanks again

Are you making sure to spoon and level your flour? If you can weigh your ingredients, that would be even better. Are you also using a light baking sheet? If you use a darker baking sheet, that can cause them to bake faster and not be as soft. You could also add a couple teaspoons of cornstarch to the cookie dough or store the cookies in an airtight container with a slice of bread to help soften them even more.
