These peanut butter cookies are my husband's most requested baked good that I make, and that is saying something. They are full of flavor and the perfect texture. He likes his darker, so I always add several more minutes to my baking time on those that I set aside for him. When he is unwilling to share, they are baked to perfection in his opinion. I have used both dark and light brown sugar, and the results are delicious either way. Use what you have on hand.
