Amazing that a peanut butter cookie can be this easy and taste so good. For any that think this recipe has something missing, it doesn't. I tried them out of curiousity.

Where is the rest of the recipe? The video shows adding flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, brown sugar, butter, peanut butter & egg. It also cooks @375° for 9-11 mins. You also have to refrigerate the dough for 3 hrs.

Better watch the video on this one. ???????????????????

I tried a similar recipe, the only difference is it called for 1/2 cup of peanuts and 1 tsp. of vanilla and bake for 10 minutes. They came out very hard. crt.
