Nutter butter peanut butter cookies topped with melted hershey kisses

Part 2 of my treats for the annual day of giving are nutter butter peanut butter cookies. They are peanut butter cookies with crushed nutter butters added. I have done something similar with oreos.

  • Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter flavor crisco (or softened butter)
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 tbs brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup plus 2 tbs oil
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbs water
  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 3 tbs cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
  • 24 nutter butters, finely crushed in a food processor

Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes before baking. In a bowl, cream butter crisco, peanut butter, sugar, brown sugar, and powdered sugar. Blend in oil, water, and egg. Fold in dry ingredients and crushed nutter butters. Scoop out 2 to 3 tbs of dough and form domes. On a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, stagger cookies. Bake 8 to 9 minutes (no longer). Cool completely. Top with melted chocolate. Store in covered container.
