No Bake Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe
I love no bake cookies! This no bake peanut
butter cookies recipe is a favorite in our house and with our Cub
Scout den. We like to teach our kids how to cook early in life
and
no bake cookies are a
great introduction to baking (without the oven). Girl Scout
groups and Boy Scout groups can make these during a meeting for a
great snack.
• 1 box of powdered sugar plus a little extra for rolling the
dough
• 1 stick butter (slightly softened)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 16oz jar creamy peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon milk
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and
the sugar.
Add vanilla and milk. Use your hands or a
kneading attachment for your mixer to mix these ingredients
together.
Divide the dough into 3 pieces. Dust a
sheet of wax paper with powdered sugar. Place 1 of the 3
pieces of dough onto the wax paper. Dust with powdered sugar
and place another sheet of wax paper on top. Use a rolling pin
to flatten the sugar dough.
Remove the top sheet of wax paper. Spread
1/3 of the peanut butter onto the sugar dough.
Roll the dough into a log and wrap with plastic
wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Repeat with the remaining
two pieces of sugar dough.
After 1 hour remove the logs from the
refrigerator and cut into slices for serving.
