If you're using grams there's a typo in on of the cards 😱, it's 113g of butter (1/2 cup).

[@fedupwelsh7211]

Thanks for the correction. So great to have a lovely American recipe given in grams.

[@idzaur]

I did this recipe yesterday with 67 g of butter and the cookies came out great. Also I halved the sugar (my personal preference in US recipes). Delicious :)

[@jarodmorris611]

@@idzaur not surprised at all that cutting the sugar in half in American recipes would still taste good.

[@rachelhunting]

Do you think this would still taste as good with almond butter or cashew butter? I'm allergic to peanuts so these cookies would kill me but they look so good

[@mjchenevertful]

@@rachelhunting I think they would, but let John answer you because I am sure he will use the types of butters you mentioned to practice to make sure it comes out right.😊

I made these cookies tonight for a memorial service. My friend passed away from pancreatic cancer. He loved peanut butter cookies. I wanted to let you know that I multiplied the recipe by 7. I used a scoop and flattened them with parchment and my palm and went over them with a fork. They turned out perfect. My dough was a little softer, but they still came out delish! I am sure “Danny” will be smiling down from above! I love your videos. Have also been is the restaurant business for 30 years! Cheers

[@MercSambo]

slight variation for those who don't like quite the full sugar hit: This recipe does really well without the white sugar, just keep the half cup of brown! I (by accident) forgot the egg, and the cookies came out awesome! Not too sweet, very very PB, and no egg!

[@Ali-cq2oo]

Hi, John. I love your videos. I am a Corona-time-watcher. Here is a fun idea that I use. Instead of using a fork to mash the cookie, I use my potato masher. It leaves funny little bumps. People always ask how I got the pattern. You may need to dip it in powdered sugar to keep it from sticking, but... hey... extra sweetness. Instead of vanilla, I use Frangelico liqueur. (I use it in my brownies and chocolate chip cookies, too.) Thanks again for the wonderful infotainment! 🍪
