So full of peanut butter flavor and delicious, these PB cookies are very easy to make and do not require any chilling.  You can whip these all up in one bowl, using a mixer or by hand using a wooden spoon.  We prefer to use a mixer as the dough will be thick, but if you want a work-out, you are more than welcome.
