    They were raving about these PB Cookies in a newsletter that I receive.


    Peanut Butter Chews
    Nicely soft and chewy, with just the faintest crunch around the edges, these
    cookies balance peanut butter flavor with the wonderful caramelized taste of
    dark brown sugar.

    Yield: 5 1/2 dozen cookies • Baking temperature: 325°F • Baking time: 15
    minutes

    1 cup (2 sticks, 8 ounces) unsalted butter
    1 cup (8 ounces) dark brown sugar
    1/2 cup (3 1/2 ounces) granulated sugar
    1/4 cup (2 3/4 ounces) dark corn syrup
    3/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    2 large eggs
    2 cups (19 ounces) creamy peanut butter
    2 cups (8 1/2 ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour

    Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two
    baking sheets.

    In a medium-sized bowl, cream together the butter, sugars, corn syrup,
    baking soda, salt, and vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well
    after each addition. Add the peanut butter, beating until the mixture is
    light and fluffy. Stir in the flour.

    Drop the dough by the tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake
    the cookies for 15 minutes, until they’re a light golden brown around the
    edges. Don’t overbake or they’ll be crisp, not soft. Remove them from the
    oven and transfer to a rack to cool.
