1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 large eggs beaten
1 cup Jif peanut butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Combine the shortening, sugars, and vanilla extract until creamy.
Add the beaten eggs and beat thoroughly. Mix in the peanut butter until well combined.
In a separate bowl, blend the dry ingredients and then incorporate them into the creamed mixture.
Using a large scoop, portion the dough onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Using a fork dipped in milk, create a crisscross pattern on each cookie for a crispy finish.
