Hello all:
I'm looking for some wise words of wisdom to help me with my peanut butter cookies.
I have a small coffee shop and bake assorted goodies to serve with our coffee.
I love peanut butter cookies and want to start baking them.
I am using a standard recipe
1 cup margarine - 1 cup peanut butter - 1 cup white sugar - 1 cup brown sugar - 2 eggs -vanilla - 1 tsp baking soda - 2 1/2 cups flour. Roll into balls - lightly squish a bit with a fork.
Bake 375 - 10 minutes.
Here's my problem - they seem to spread lots during cooking and come out too thin and big. You can hardly see the fork marks on the top.
Ideally, I want smaller,thicker cookies that you can still see the fork marks in the top.
I used to always go to my mother for any cooking questions, but have recently lost her, and need help.
thanks - look forward to some suggestions and help.
