1-2-3 Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

1-2-3 Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

A 1950 Bisquick ad featured Betty Crocker's "1-2-3 Cooky" recipe. This recipe was promoted as "thrifty" because it cost 5 1/2 cents to make a dozen cookies and a large box of Bisquick yielded 390 cookies.

This recipe has been around since 1950 it simply cannot be as bad as some of the reviews state, or it would have passed into history by now. I find that when making peanut butter cookies that opening a fresh jar works best. A jar of PB that has been in the pantry opened looses some of its flavor and texture. # 1. rule of cooking always use fresh ingredients.

Way too much bisquick. Very dry, barely sweet, pretty tasteless. I threw out the rest of the batch without baking after first pan. Felt bad I had wasted the ingredients. ie: ditto Brandiek (last review)
