Or making popcorn (one of our favorite is <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiherron.com\/blog\/microwave-caramel-corn\/\" title=\"Carol's Caramel Corn\">Carol's Caramel Corn<\/a>). Perhaps I was cooking the stovetop type of <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiherron.com\/blog\/no-bake-oatmeal-cookies\/\" title=\"No Bake Cookies\">Chocolate Oatmeal No-Bake Cookies<\/a>. All of those were favorites of my kids.<\/p>\n<p>I planned the baking so the smell would fill the house and greet them when they walked in the door coming home from school. With every ingredient, I was making memories for my family. I learned this from my childhood days. When I was a young girl, when my brothers and I walked in the door from school, my momma always had something ready, like a plate of her peanut butter cookies. I still remember the smell that filled our home. Good memories!<\/p>\n<p>Through the years, I added this Peanut Butter Cookie recipe to my arsenal.\u00a0 It's a simpler recipe than the one my momma baked, but even so, they are yummy and good. I still make the old-fashioned ones occassionally. Both recipes are the best of the best!<\/p>\n<p>I need some kids to walk in the door and rescue me. These cookies, especially fresh out of the oven, are hard to resist.<\/p>\n<p>Let's bake cookies and make some memories!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_2 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_3 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h2>Ingredients and Directions<\/h2>\n<p>1 cup smooth peanut butter<br \/>1 whole egg<br \/>1 cup granulated\u00a0sugar<\/p>\n<p>Mix together all ingredients.
