Whip up dough, freeze, and bake for quick and delicious peanut butter cookies.

Ingredients:

2 cups shortening
2 cups brown sugar
2 cups peanut butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
5 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking soda

Instructions:

Place four 12x14-inch long pieces of waxed paper or plastic wrap on the counter.
Combine shortening, white sugar, brown sugar, and peanut butter in a large bowl. Use an electric mixer to cream the mixture until smooth and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and eggs, continue beating until light and fluffy.
Combine flour and baking soda in a separate bowl until fully mixed. Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until well incorporated.
Divide the dough into four pieces and shape each piece into an 8 to 10-inch roll. Wrap the rolls in waxed paper or plastic wrap, then chill in the freezer until it's time to bake.
Preheat the oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), then prepare your baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
Take the dough out of the freezer and slice it into 1-inch thick pieces. Quarter each slice and shape into balls. Arrange them on the baking sheet and gently press down with a fork to create a lovely crisscross pattern.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges, then cool on racks.
