This is a serviceable peanut butter cookie recipe. It is very good, but not ethereal.

SqueakyChu is right - the idea that this recipe makes 60 cookies is crazy. Even back when this recipe would have been first made, in the days when cookies were not freakishly large, it would have only made 60 if you were making cookies for a doll's tea party.
That said, I got 2 1/2 dozen normal sized (about 2 inches across, baked) cookies. They taste just like I remembered from when I was a kid, and they're almost absurdly easy to make. I threw in some chocolate chips, but otherwise did the recipe as written.

I made no changes to this recipe. They were so tasty! The only thing was that I made them larger than specified, and I ended up with only 37 instead of 60 cookies. :(
