Similar to traditional peanut butter cookie

1/4 C (2 oz.) butter
1/3 C (4oz) honey
1 large egg
3/4 C (7 1/8 oz.)peanut butter, any style
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt (or less if desired)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 C AP flour
(may sub in 1/4 c whole wheat)

Preheat oven to 375.

Beat butter and honey till fluffy.

Beat in egg, vanilla and peanut butter till smooth.

Combine dry ingredients and stir in. Dough will be soft and sticky.

Drop by rounded teaspoon on parchment lined baking sheet. Cookies do NOT spread, space accordingly.

Flatten with fork, making criss-cross design, dipping fork in flour before EVERY press.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes till bottoms start to brown; tops stay light. (check by lifting with spatula)
Cool on rack.

Can also be made with cookie press, using bar design; use shorter baking time for pressed cookies. Dough will probably be too sticky for press, so stir in 1 or 2 teaspoons additional flour.

Spread the word

These are a wonderful, not too sweet, small cookie. They stay soft. I used half white whole wheat flour.
