Before Christmas time I asked if anyone knew of a good buttery
Christmas cookie recipe and Elvee posted one and I tried it. It
was fantastic and everyone raved about it-----especially my kids.
Thank you again Elvee for coming through with the perfect recipe.

Bite-Size All-American Peanut Butter Cookies (Revised 8/19/02,
see below)

Ingredients

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1-3/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Semi-sweet chocolate chips and white chocolate chips for
decoration (optional)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 3 cookie sheets or line
with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and both sugars until
light and fluffy. Add the peanut butter and mix well. Add the
milk
and vanilla and mix well. Add the egg and mix until fully
incorporated.
Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt into another bowl.
Add to the butter mixture and mix until a dough forms. On a
lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into 1/2-inch thick
logs.

(The length is not important.) Slice the logs into 3/4-inch
lengths
and place 1 inch apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Top each
cookie with a semi-sweet chocolate or white chocolate chip.
[This is where I had the hardest time making them small enough.
The half-inch roll is really skinny -- I need to get something to
use as a guide. I can tell you that my butter knife is 3/4' wide
at one point, though. -chaz]

Bake one pan at a time on the middle rack of the oven for 8 to 10
minutes, until the cookies are lightly browned on the bottoms and
the tops are very lightly colored. (While one pan is baking,
prepare the next cookie sheet.) Allow cookies to cool directly
on the cookie sheet on a rack. [For my oven, it was 10 minutes.
The reason you have three cookie sheets is because one's in the
oven, one's cooling, and one of them is being filled for the next
cycle. -chaz]
