Ideas for Making Peanut Butter Cookies

• This can make round two dozen cookies, so we normally freeze into cookie dough balls so we will bake only a few at a time as we like.
• I’ve baked this dough proper after making it (not chilled) and I’ve baked it from frozen. Whereas it does barely change how a lot the cookies will unfold, I’ve had success with all strategies so I don’t advocate chilling within the recipe card. Simply know that you may, or you’ll be able to bake from frozen, too.
