Triple Play Peanut Butter Cookies
Triple Play Peanut Butter Cookies (Adapted from KA Cookie Companion) is one of my all-time favorite peanut butter cookie recipes. The volume measurements are fine, but for best results use the weights.

Notes
For thicker cookies, prepare the dough as directed, but shape the dough into 36 balls, put the dough on foil lined plates or a tray that can fit in the refrigerator.
Chill the dough for several hours. When the dough balls are firm, arrange dough balls a few inches apart on parchment or foil lined baking sheets and bake for 14 minutes or until fully baked.
