Perfect Peanut Butter Cookies

These cookies are made with shortening and without butter,
I like to add cholate chpis to the batter and make them
an even better perfect peanut butter cookie.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions:
Cream together the shortening, peanut butter
and sugars. Beat in egg. Combine the flour,
baking soda, baking powder and salt;
gradually stir into the peanut butter mixture.
Cover and refrigerate dough for at least one hour.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Make small balls of dough.
Flatten with fork dipped in flour to form cross-wise pattern.
Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven,
or until just set. Remove from baking sheets
to cool on wire racks.
