May I have your recipe? My ex is a staunch liberal.

LOL! Thanks for not flaming me!

I made the standard Toll House Choc Chip Cookies every time.

This morning I asked him what other kinds of cookies he likes. Peanut butter cookies and oatmeal with raisin are approved alternatives.

I do have a great recipe for PB cookies from an old Betty Crocker book. These turn out so good and look like they belong in a really good bakery:

PB Cookies
__________

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup real butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 1/4 cups flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

*note: I add vanilla although it is not in the recipe. A bit more flour has to be added when one tsp vanilla goes in the batter.

Mix sugars,butter,PB,egg.
Stir in remaining ingredients.
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
Lightly grease 2 cookie sheets.
Roll dough in hands to desired size and flatten with a fork in a criss-cross pattern, and sprinkle each flattened cookie with granulated sugar before baking.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cookies are slightly browned on top.

Yield, about 18 large cookies.

Best oatmeal raisin recipe is on the inside of the lid of a large container of Quaker Oats. They’re called “Incredible Disappearing Oatmeal Cookies”.
