Brea's Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies


I got this recipe from my friend Breanna Brown out here in Pittsburgh. I had tried hers when she made them but wanted to see if I could do it because cookies are not my thing, they always end up flat or burnt. But these were way simple and they were delish!

¾ C Peanut Butter
½ C Shortening
1 ½ C Packed Brown Sugar
3 T Milk
1 ½ T Vanilla
1 Beaten Egg
1 ¾ C Flour
¼ tsp Salt (rounded)
¾ tsp Baking Soda

Cream first 5 ingredients. Add beaten egg.
In seperate bowl, combine flour, salt and soda.
Mix both bowls together.

(I like to add Mini Reese's Pieces in to the mixture)

Make the criss-cross shape on top the cookie.
Bake on non-greased cookie sheet for 7-8 minutes @ 375 degrees.
