About Peanut butter cookie

Peanut Butter Cookies are a beloved treat rooted in American cuisine, with origins tracing back to early 20th-century recipes when peanut butter became widely available. These soft or slightly crumbly delights are typically made with peanut butter, sugar, flour, eggs, and baking soda, though variations can include vanilla extract or chocolate chips for added flavor. Rich in protein and healthy fats from the peanut butter, they offer a satisfying energy boost. However, they often contain added sugars and refined flour, which can make them calorie-dense and less ideal for frequent consumption. Homemade versions allow for healthier substitutions, such as whole-grain flour or natural sweeteners, appealing to those seeking a nourishing option. Perfect for snacks or gatherings, Peanut Butter Cookies strike a delicious balance between indulgence and wholesome ingredients depending on their preparation.
