Note

Storage: Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months.

Substitutions: You can substitute creamy peanut butter with crunchy for extra texture. If you prefer a sweeter cookie, use dark brown sugar instead of white sugar.

Tip: Do not overbake these cookies, as they will continue to firm up as they cool. If you like them crispier, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Variation: Try adding raisins, dried cranberries, or butterscotch chips for different flavor profiles.
