To taste it did not come to all, but those housewives, who began to use it in baking, were convinced that this is really a valuable culinary find. Try baking cookies with peanut butter for your family. Not pretending to exquisite appearance, this cookie is wonderful for taste - crispy from the outside, tender inside, with a pleasant aroma.

It is often added chocolate, and at home to achieve the desired consistency is much more difficult.
