Among the many made in USA recipes I have tasted, this is one of my favorites: I’m talking about peanut butter cookies, also known as peanut butter cookies.
Today I propose you this recipe and I warn you: it will be really difficult to resist! In fact, in my imagination there is a whole category of American desserts, such as pancakes with maple syrup, New York cheesecake, cookies, which lends itself to providing ideas for breakfasts and snacks!
So I really don’t see the reason not to indulge in these delicacies from time to time, do you?
