Soft Peanut Butter Cookies

"If I were to rate on flavor alone I would rate it a 5. If you are going to use this recipe you really need to pay attention to them because they can easily overbake. The recipe says to take them out..." See more when the edges turn a light brown, but in my experience the edges never changed color. I was afraid I was going to underbake them so I kept waiting for them to change and they didn't. I finally took them out and the overbaked product was crumbly.

I know someone else mentioned that they used butter, but I used margarine (SmartBalance) and it worked fine. Thank you for this recipe! They are soft and delicious."
