Easy Peanut Butter Cookies

Did you know that it is National Peanut Butter Day in the United States?  Now, I do not need much of an excuse to bake, so this was a good one as any.  In celebration of this day I am sharing a super easy Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe.

It is made from a cake mix, so it really is simple.   This recipe is adapted from Allrecipes.

The cookies came out great and took very little time to make.

Easy Peanut Butter Cookies

1 box yellow cake mix

1 cup peanut butter (I used creamy)

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/4 cup butter, softened

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 egg

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix together ingredients until well combined.  Roll dough into 1 inch balls onto a baking sheet.

Flatten cookies with fork.  This is the best part isn’t it? I mean, how can you not make the cute criss cross design on it?

It is nostalgic for me and reminds me of baking as a little girl with my mom.  But I digress.

Bake for 12-14 minutes.  Let cool.

My favorite way to eat these is with a glass a milk (to drink and to dunk in).
