Tips for Making this Recipe

• This recipe is easy to make, but do be sure to let the dough chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. If you've got the time, give it an hour in the fridge. This allows the dough to set and stops the cookies from spreading when you bake them.
• Allow the cookies to cool before eating them - they'll stay together better at room temperature.

I hope you enjoy these delicious peanut butter cookies!
