I had a craving for peanut butter cookies today. Seeing as I had peanut butter and other baking essentials, I assumed I would be fine. In the end they turned out well, but there were a few small hangups along the way.
For one, I did not have the peanut butter chips that the recipe called for. This was fine because those are gross. I used a mix of milk and dark chocolate chips instead. Also, I only had about 1/2 cup peanut butter. So I used tahini for the other half cup. Finally, I did not have vanilla extract, so I used cinnamon for a little extra flavor.
To top it all of, they expanded more than I thought they would in the oven. I also left them in there just a little to long. They are not burnt, but the bottoms are browner than I would like. Whatever. I guess that's just how the cookie crumbles!
