I wanted to add additional peanut butter flavor to these cookies, so I added peanut butter chips to the batter. I scooped the dough using a small scoop, which was fun and helped keep them all the same size. When the cookies were done, I drizzeld melted peanut butter chips on top with a little sprinkeling of chopped peanuts. Delicuous! This recipe made about 2 dozen cookies.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a bowl, sift together flour and baking powder then set aside.
- In a large bowl or mixer, blend peanut butter, shortening, and egg. Add sweetened condensed milk alternately with the sifted dry ingredients.
- Stir in vanilla and peanuts (if crunchy peanut butter was used, you can leave it out)
- Shape dough into 1/2 to 1 inch balls. Place balls on an ungreased baking sheet. Flatten each ball by pressing a criss-cross pattern with a fork. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until edges are lightly brown. Immediately remove from baking sheet and cool.
- Optional - melt peanut butter chips, if it's too thick add a little warmed milk until the desired consistency. Drizzle over cookies and sprinkle chopped peanuts.
