My little sister is deathly allergic to nuts and so we didn’t keep peanut butter around at our house. Growing up I had peanut butter cookies at friends houses or parties occasionally but really never thought they were that good. Until one fateful day I found this recipe. When my family was in town the other weekend we had a whole bunch of people who “didn’t like peanut butter cookies” devour 56 of them in a few short hours. My thighs wish that was an exaggeration. Make these at your own peril!
