I'm very very very late answering this one, but I have to share this recipe for peanut butter cookies. They are so simple, but very good, my dad loves them, and my dog, but he eats boiled water-crest my mom grows in the backyard.
Anyway The base is from Paula Dean's recipe for "three ingredient peanut butter cookies," but the dough can mix with almost anything.
Here's the recipe:
1 cup of peanut butter
1 cup of sugar
1 whole egg
Then you can roll them into balls and bake at 360 (the recipe calls for 375, but they tend to burn on the bottom fairly easily) cook for about ten to fifteen minutes and you have the basic cookie, but what makes them really good is when you add stuff to them.
My favorite is when I decided that peanut-butter and snickerdoodles where always meant to be togther. So I used this dough and 1 part sugar and 1 part cinnamon and dipped them like you would with any snickerdoodle.
My dad likes the ones that I made to be sort of like a granola bar (I don't know exactly what amounts I threw in there of everything, because I terrible at measuring) But about the same amount 2/3 part oatmeal to 1 part dough and just whatever nuts or dried fruit I could find around the house.
DTH likes when I chuck in some chocolate or whatever.
