Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/4 c Flour
3/4 t Baking soda
1/4 t Salt
1/2 c Margarine (l stick)
1/2 c Peanut butter
1/2 c Sugar
1/2 c Packed brown sugar
1 Egg
1/2 t Vanilla

Stir together flour, soda, and salt. In a mixer bowl
beat butter for 30 seconds. Add peanut butter and
sugars; beat till fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat
well. Add dry ingredients to beaten mixture; beat
till well combined. Shape dough into 1 inch balls;
roll in granulated sugar, if desired. Place 2 inches
apart on an ungreased cookie sheet; crisscross with
the tines of a fork. Bake at 375 for 9-10 minutes .
Cool about 1 minute before removing to a wire rack.
Makes 48. For an alternative, do not crisscross with
a fork. Simply cook as directed. Upon removing
cookies from the oven, place a chocolate candy Kiss in
the center of each cookie, unwrappped of course.
Press slightly and cool completely. You can wrap
cookie dough into a 1 inch ball around a candy kiss
and cook as directed. This gives you a cookie with a
chocolate center. This is also another great
alternative.
