I was looking for a peanut butter cinnamon cookie recipe and found it in one of my "OLD" McCormick recipe booklets. I changed it a little in that I rolled the dough in sugar before baking them and they turned out amazing. These are better when they are not overbaked. I hope you will give them a try and that you enjoy them as much as my family did. These are great served with a big ole' glass of cold milk or a cup of hot coffee or tea.
