Notes
Spoon and level the flour into the measuring cup. Scooping it directly compresses the flour into the cups and the dough will be dry.Don't overbake! They will continue to bake on the baking sheet as they cool.Make sure you use creamy peanut butter, not natural peanut butter.Add in some peanut butter chips for an extra yummy treat!
