My keyboard is still tricky, I have my 'y' back, but my nnnnnnnnnn sticks pretty bad. Still a few numbers missing, but at least I am back, sort of.
I just got a new peanut butter called The Heat Is On by a company called Peanut Butter & Co. . Their web address is www.ilovepeanutbutter.com.
I decided to make peanut butter cookies with it. They turned out WOOONDERFULLLL!
This peanut butter has: chili powder, cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper & paprika. I used my regular peanut butter cookie recipe and subsituted the spicy peanut butter. It was terrific! I will have to work on finding the right combonation of spices to make it myself someday.
Spicy Peanut Butter Cookies
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup spicy peanut butter (The Heat Is On)
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, cream together shortening, brown sugar, and peanut butter until smooth. Stir in egg, milk, and vanilla. In a separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, and salt then stir into the peanut butter mixture until well blended.
Use a scoop and drop onto ungreased cookie sheets. Press down criss-cross with a fork gently to flatten. Turn oven down to 375. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes (depending on size of cookie scoop you use. Mine holds about 2 Tablespoons and I cook for about 10 minutes) in the preheated oven. Space cookies about 2-3 inches apart, they spread out. Cookies are done when they are slightly browned across the top and spread out quite a ways. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
