Irresistible Peanut Butter Cookies

I don't know how people don't like Peanut butter cookies. The only reason I can see why one shouldn't eat p.b. cookies is because they have a nut allergy.

Ingredients

3/4 C Jiff or Skippy Peanut butter
12 C butter
1 1/4 C brown sugar
3 Tbsp milk
1 Tbsp vanilla
1 egg
1 3/4 C flour
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda

to make:

pre-heat oven 375 degrees

combine peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at med speed until well blended. Add egg.
Combine flour, salt, and baking soda. add to creamed mixture at low speed.
drop spoon full on cookie sheet 2" apart. Flatten slightly with fork

bake 375 degrees for 7-8 min or until beginning to look brown. cool 2 min on baking sheet before removal.

to make kiss blossoms:
make the same all the way down to the "flatten slightly with fork" part of the recipe. Instead of that, just pop in the oven and bake for 6 min. While baking unwrap Hersey kisses. place on center of cookie and gently push down. Cook for 1 more minute.

to make peanut butter cup cookies:
make the same all the way down to "drop spoon full on cookie sheet 2" apart. flatten slightly..." Instead of that, make round balls and place one ball in small muffin tin slots. Bake for 6 min. While baking unwrap peanut butter cups. Push p.b cup down in center of baked cookie and cook for 1 more minute. These have to completely cool before you dump them out of the tin.
