288 - Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

(by Shirley McNevich)

3/4 cup butter flavored Crisco
1 cup Jif peanut butter
1 1/2 cups firmly packed Domino's dark brown sugar
1/2 cup water
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups Quaker Quick oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
white sugar

In a mixer, combine Crisco, peanut butter and brown sugar--beat until creamy. Add water, egg, vanilla--beat. Add oats, flour, baking soda and mix well. Chill dough for 2 hours in refrigerator. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Shape the dough into 1" balls. Put cookies on ungreased cookie sheet 2" apart. Put white sugar in a bowl, press fork on to one of the cookies to get it sticky, then dip fork in white sugar and make criss-cross patterns on each cookie which flattens them. Make sure you dip fork in sugar each time before making the next part of the criss-cross. Bake at 350 degrees for 9-11 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
