Peanut Butter Cookies

This is my favourite recipe because can be done within a short time.
I alternate it once in a while.

Sometimes I add raisins or chocolate chips.

Today, I used part butter and part melted coconut oil. 
I also added 1/4 cup of coconut flakes to the batter.
The cookies turned out crisper on the outside
and still a little soft inside. 
Very good. 

On some of the cookies I placed a chocolate chip
before they went into the oven. 

If you only have chocolate kisses available, 
place them on top of the warm cookie 
after they come out of the oven. 
Kisses would melt during the baking process.


Recipe:

Ingredients:

1/2 c butter (1 stick)
1/2 c peanut butter 
(I prefer the crunchy version, ca 3 tblsp)
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 c all purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt

How to:
Preheat oven to 350 °F , (180 °C)

Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl
Mix all soft ingredients in another bowl
and beat the batter for ca 30 sec.

Add the flour mix and fold it in until all is combined well.
Drop a teaspoon (I prefer 1/2 teaspoon = bite size) of the batter 
on an cookie sheet lined with non greased parchment paper.

Bake 8 - 10 min until edges are slightly brown.
Enjoy!
