Peanut Butter Streusel Cookies

Decadent peanut butter cookies made with creamy peanut butter and sprinkled with a delicate peanut butter and cinnamon streusel topping.  These cookies are soft and chewy and have plenty of peanut butter flavor packed into a simply delicious cookie.  These cookies are soft and chewy, just like grandma used to make.  They feature the signature crisscross fork marks and are topped with a delicate peanut butter streusel topping that will crumble in your mouth.

I received complimentary Heirloom Cookie Sheets to review.  All opinions are mine alone.

Peanut Butter Cookies with Streusel Topping

 It’s that time of season again, where every kind of cookie is being baked for the holidays.  Making the transition from fall to winter is much more delightful with all the hot soups, warm comfort food and holiday baking.  The first half of winter is not so bad, especially when we get to wear cozy sweater, fuzzy gloves, boots and scarves.  My favorite is spending time next to a cozy fire on the weekend.  You can usually find my friends and I baking up a storm in the kitchen, too!  During this time of year, I like to stock up on baking ingredients like flour, sugar, butter and of course, an array of holiday sprinkles just in case an ice storm or snow storm keeps me inside for a few days.

It’s relaxing to turn on holiday music, invite friends over and sip on hot chocolate while baking an assortment of cookies.  This time of year, my neighbors and family back home always know they will get a box of cookies from me.

Baking the perfect cookie start with a good recipe and finish by baking on a great cookie sheet.

Peanut Butter Cookies

 We’ve replaced our old, scratched up, chemical laden, nonstick coated cookie sheets with two of these stainless steel pans from Heirloom Cookie Sheets.  Baking ware shouldn’t have to require using parchment paper, aluminum foil, grease or any cooking sprays.  It should be as simple as just placing food on sheet and placing it in the oven.  It really is that simple.  I simply placed the dough on the sheet and pop it in the oven.  I wait for the cookies to cool down and placed on a cooling rack.  No sticking and no need to prepare the sheets in any way.  Clean up is simple.  I use a non abrasive sponge with a little soap.

The holidays are all about giving and I cannot think of a better way to care for family than gifting non-toxic stainless steel baking sheets that won’t ever rust.  Cookie lover’s will love the recipe collection book as well.  The book has dozens of recipes to try for the holiday season as well!

    This recipe is incomplete, it lists 2 eggs are part of the ingredients, and then fails to mention their use. However the photo does look as though they will taste very nice.
