We eat a lot of peanut butter, so I decided to make my own. When I compared the cost of my own to store-bought, homemade was much cheaper. Plus it's a whole lot tastier, and you know what goes into it! —Marge Austin, North Pole, Alaska

While I have not made this recipe specifically, I have made peanut butter with dry roasted peanuts without adding anything else (using lightly salted dry roasted peanuts). My recipe is actually for chocolate peanut butter! After doing as above with lightly salted peanuts, I add a bag of semi sweet chips with the processor running until desired consistency. Let set a few hours to firm up.
