This is a great recipe for the old favorite! The only thing I did differently was adding about 1/4 c more peanut butter (and I use creamy style) and also 1/2-3/4 c coconut just for extra flavor. Meanwhile A TIP for those that complained about the texture…it’s all about the boiling time. If you underboil you will get cookies that won’t set, if you overboil, you will get cookies that will crumble and not form at all. This recipe calls for 1 1/2 minutes. My suggestion for the perfect cookie is to time it from a full boil and do 1 1/2 minutes from that point. If you count from a simmer (just barely bubbling) then make it 2 – 2 1/2 mins tops! You will have to play with it to see how your stove heats, etc. Hope that helps!! Good cookies!! 5 stars!
