RE: peanut butter kisses (cookies)

I have the heat set at what they said, I left them in what they said (they-the cookbook), and my husband said they don't enough peanut butter in to taste like peanut butter cookies. I told him I followed the recipe to. While baking, they rose a bit, not much, but when I took them out they fell flat down. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all in advance.

Answer 1

chill the dough for an hour before baking? or buy new baking soda & powder , that stuff goes bad after a couple months

Answer 2

cookies usually tend to become flatter after you take them out of the oven because he heat was making them more puffy

Answer 3

Recipes are often bland and require spicing up according to an
individuals taste. Add more peanut butter and anything else that rocks your boat-like cinnimon, ginger, etc. To keep them from falling don't stir and mix so much-just lightly, enough to get the ingredients mixed together.

Answer 4

I'm not big on peanut butter cookies, but they never seem to taste very peanut buttery to me either. No matter if I make them or someone else does.

Answer 5

Maybe you should try another recipe there is a good one on the back of the Kraft peanut butter jar.

Answer 6

If you want, you can add more peanut butter for taste. And anyways, cookies aren't supposed to rise very much.
