“I've been trying different peanut butter cookie recipes looking for one that had a little loft, but not cakey. This is the one! And to make it even better, you do not have to chill. You can chill the dough (and I prefer them chilled, even for just 5 minutes) b” — a cook, 5.0★
“I made these exactly according to the recipe, and they were tasty but it's a very dry and crumbly cookie. Not sure if I will be making them again, I prefer the other cookie recipes on this website” — a cook, 3.0★
