I *just* made a peanut butter recipe and I Hate doing the measuring part.<br />Oh and the Kitchenaid hand mixer is the BEST.

I rarely make cookies and didn't read about the method (which my mum says is at the start of the cookie section) and totally ignored the taught-from-a-young-age adage to mix wet and dry separately. My dough was mega dry so I added an extra egg to moisten things.<br /><br />In hindsight, I'm pretty sure I mismeasured the butter, because they didn't spread out as they were supposed to, like yours did. Still delicious though! I love the addition of citrus, mmm!Zoey (Vegedible)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03741844250909743791noreply@blogger.com
