How to Make Homemade, Fat-Free Peanut Butter Cookies

hello there and welcome to Sugar and Spice my name is Melissa Randall from baking with Melissa and today we are making reduced fat peanut butter cookies we're going to go ahead and put a half a cup of reduced fat peanut butter into our bowl and a half a stick of reduced fat margarine or butter into the bowl as well and we're going to cream those together once you have your peanut butter and your butter mixed together you're going to add in a half a cup of brown sugar and a four of a cup of white granulated sugar place that into the bowl and let it stir for about 2 minutes okay I have the peanut butter and butter all mixed in with the sugars now we're going to place 3 tablespoons of reduced fat or fat-free milk into our Bowl a teaspoon of vanilla and one egg and go ahead and get that all mixed together now you're going to add in 1 and 34 of a cup of flour a half a teaspoon of salt and one teaspoon of baking soda you'll just go ahead and give that a little mix there and you gradually add the flour into your bowl okay I have all of the ingredients mixed together now it's time to put our cookies onto our cooking sheet I've preheated the oven to 350° and I've lined my b baking sheet with parchment paper you don't have to line it with parchment paper however when you bake cookies with parchment paper it makes the release of the cookie so much easier so I'm taking a small little scoop here and putting my cookie dough onto the cookie sheet and then once you get them all onto your pan you're going to take a fork and you're going to press down the on in the center of the cookie in both directions like so now if you want to make bigger cookie sizes you can do that as well just depends but since these are reduced fat you might want to make them smaller now I have the cookies ready to go in the oven as I said earlier I preheated the oven to 350° and I'm going to let them bake for approximately 12 to 14 minutes just start checking them after about 12 minutes and there you have it amazing reduced fat peanut butter cookies so you can still enjoy some sweet treats even when you're watching your calorie intake thank you for watching me here today on Sugar and Spice my name is Melissa Randall from baking with Melissa and I hope you have a wonderful baking day
