  1. Yum these look so good. I love peanut butter cookies–but they’re a treat I rarely have due to the high calories in peanut butter. Still–delicous.

  2. These look fabulous Deb! Thank you for your post because I love peanut butter cookies, but, not being a very good baker, I thought they would be difficult. This looks so easy!

  3. Deb, I’m a sucker for a good peanut butter cookie, and this one sounds not only delicious, but hassle free. I just might have to whip up a batch.

  4. I love this recipe. The texture of the batter looks so perfectly creamy. And my peanut butter loving son with Celiac can eat them since they are flourless. Yay!

  5. Wow, terrific looking recipe! I’m a sucker for any baked good made with peanut butter, and cookies are the best of the best. And this looks like the best cookie recipe ever. Well, at least for peanut butter. 🙂 Really nice — thanks.

  6. Can’t wait to bake these. Your photos are delicious, you picked the perfect recipe for the stoneware.

  7. Once in a while I stick my finger or a spoon into my husband’s peanut butter jar and enjoy the treat. I wouldn’t mind having one of your cookies right now, I like the idea of sprinkling salt on top of them, it reminds me of salted caramel which I love.

    1. Thank you Gerlinde! Straight up peanut butter is not for me, but peanut butter cookies certainly are!
