When my Granddaughter, Ashley was 3 or 4 years old we made these cookies....she would yell out ..."I want to smunch them" There goes the name Ashley's Smunch Cookies... She is now old enough to make them herself and can carry on the tradition with her Daughter Annalee. Thanks Ashley for the Memories..Love you
These are a dry crunchy cookie that will melt in your mouth. My son doesn't care for them. He says they taste like dirt :) NOT!!!! Dunk them in a glass of cold milk and they are to die for!!
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
3 cups of flour
1 teasp baking powder
1 1/2 teasp baking soda
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1 1/2 cups Crisco butter flavored shortening
1 teasp salt
Cream sugars Shortening, peanut butter, and eggs until creamy
Mix dry ingredients and gradually add to the sugar mixture and mix well.
Roll into 1" balls or do like I do and use a small Pampered Chef scoop...which makes it go a lot faster and more sanitary, put them on an ungreased cookie sheet about 2" apart. SMUNCH them down with a fork or do like I do and use a potato masher that has the little squares in it . It makes them perfectly round with a cute design.
Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes
Store in a airtight container
