Deliciously balanced chocolate peanut butter treats. Simple to make and absolutely delicious.
Ingredients:
  • 0.5 cup shortening
  • 1.25 cups brown sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons hot water
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.75 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and generously grease your cookie sheets.
  • In a large bowl, mix the shortening, brown sugar, and peanut butter until creamy. Add the milk, egg, and vanilla, beating well. Dissolve the cocoa powder in hot water and combine with the peanut butter mixture. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt until fully combined. Drop dough by heaping teaspoons onto cookie sheets, then use a fork to create a criss-cross pattern on top before baking.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
