Peanut Butter Cookies

This is a recipe I tried last night from my new healthy cooking cook book. They turned out so good evan Aaron liked them!!!

Peanut Butter Cookies

3 T butter softened
2 T reduced fat peanut butter ( I use all natural peanut butter evan healthier)
1/2 C packed brown sugar
1/4 C white sugar
1 egg white
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 C flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt

In large mixing bowl creme the butter,peanut butter and sugars. Add egg white; beat until blended. Beat in vanilla
Combine flour salt and baking soda;gradually add to the creamed mixture. Shape into a 8 inch roll; wrap in plastic wrap. Freeze for two hours or until firm

Unwrap and cut into slices about 1/4 in thick. Place two inches apart on baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Flatten with fork. Bake at 350 for 6-8 minutes. Cool for 1-3 minutes before removing to wire racks.

***I skipped the 2 hour freezer step. I just rolled the dough in balls and then flattened with a fork and the cookies still came out great!!!****
