Cinnamon Sugar Peanut Butter Cookies

November 4, 2013 by Hillary 15 Comments

What do you do with a 32 oz. jar of creamy peanut that doesn’t meet your nut butter standards?

I bought a jar of Brad’s Organic Peanut Butter at Costco semi-recently; it’s not salted nor does it have superb texture, so it wasn’t getting put to use as regularly as its counterparts. No nut butter goes to waste in this household though, and since I am in baking mode – in a major way – I knew exactly where that peanut buttah was headed…

I love a classic peanut butter cookie, and you can bet I like them with chocolate chips, or – better yet – dipped in rich, dark chocolate. Since it’s the holiday season, and spiced recipes are an obligation this time of year, I decided to spice things up — simply with cinnamon!

Peanut Butter Cookie meet Snickerdoodle. 

I had fun with the photo shoot — enjoy!

Oh, and the recipe >> pin it, print it, e-mail it!

What is your favorite “classic” cookie?

What should I do with the remainder of the sub-par PB?

    These cookies look fantastic! A perfect resolution to your sub-standard jar of PB. Lets see…for the rest of it…well, some would probably be good used in smoothies! :-)

    Maybe use the rest of the PB for peanut sauce?

    The photo shoot is beautiful – and I love peanut butter. I’m a runner, too, and so I pretty much live on pb :) My favorite classic cookie is Nestle Toll House chocolate chip, but I’m also a sucker for a soft sugar cookie. Happy November!

    Peanut butter cookies are always a hit around here. Although we love ours to have chocolate, too! Great photos! Very appetizing!

    Girl, these look amazing and if I would have done the photo shoot there would have only been like two cookies left to take pictures of!

    Two of my favorite cookies in one? Unbelievable. A great way to use up unwanted nut butter!

    I’m loving your pics with the cute little spoon. It makes me want to reach through the screen and grab one of these bad boys!

    I would make peanut butter “granola” bars with peanut butter, nuts, coconut, and honey. Delicious and healthy!

    Those look delicious! One of my favorite go-to’s are my college roommate’s chocolate chip cookies, or my grandmother’s peanut butter cookies with the Hershey’s kiss on top :)

❷⓿❷⓿ - moved clear across the country to ❷⓿❷⓿

- moved clear across the country to a new state for the second time
- hopped from one AirBNB to the next for 6 weeks while looking for a house to call home
- made new friends, virtually & IRL
- binge watched more TV shows than I can recall
- leveled up as an entrepreneur: hitting milestones with my virtual assistant and @beautycounter businesses
- voted for a new president 
- ascended new trails and explored alpine lakes of the Pacific Northwest 
- adapted: to Zoom holidays, takeout, and masked faces becoming the (temporary) norm

This challenging year was all about appreciating the little things while living through some really BIG things. 2020 had more than a few lessons to teach us all. Through a pandemic, pivotal change in presidency, and loud cry for human rights, I see very clearly how privileged I am. It was the year to let go of plans and lean in to a new perspective. 

After all, hindsight is ②⓪②⓪.

Best thing about 2020... for me, it’s been relationships - virtual and IRL.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the goals that I set for 2020 was to make one new local friend in Seattle (seriously something I wrote down as I began the new year moving across the country). While I’m happy to say that I did so (during a pandemic), I feel fortunate for the virtual friendships that developed, too.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’ve gotta take a second to give a shoutout to my newest soul sista @weeksofwonder. You helped me get after it during my second year of entrepreneurship with a hefty dose of #2020 mayhem. 🙏🏼⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Wendy and I met here on IG, and what started as a business relationship and accountability partner has turned into a special bond that transcends any walkie-talkie or social media app. This creative spirit has not only inspired me to get after it and dream bigger as an entrepreneur, but in the same way has encouraged me to honor rest and play: whether it’s giving each other kudos on Strava for tackling a run, building badass business plans and packages, or simply holding space to share the wins and the many woes, personally and professionally, of a memorable year. Having Wendy in my corner has led to some serious momentum and a sense of consistent community.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
2020 has been a shit show, but it delivered GRL PWR 👊🏻⁣⁣
