Peanut Butter Chewy Cookies

These are chewy Peanut Butter Cookies that I made a few days back for breakfasts with coffee. When I was growing up, I never like Peanut Butter, I guess it is one of those things which I acquired (like eating vegetables, Japanese, etc). Now, Reese Chocolates are even one of my favorites! I bought my Peanut Butter a few weeks back after craving for the Ultimate Peanut Butter Cake by Sarah. I made it and I was surprised that people liked it. And I also feel guilty about never asking people if they have peanut allergy when they took those cupcakes. Same thing now with the cookies. I never bothered asking if they have allergies! LOL

Peanut Butter Cupcakes

I was planning on making Peanut Butter and Jelly cupcakes but it turned out to be just the peanut butter and a mock jelly! I ended up topping my cuppies with Strawberry buttercream (which was very smooth by the way!). The Peanut Butter cupcake is Sarah Philip's recipe. It turned out to be very soft, moist and peanut-y.
The frosting is just a regular Swiss Meringue Buttercream with Strawberry puree added on it. It was very velvety and smooth and was only slightly sweet (and according to Manny, malinamnam! hehe). I'm dying to try out the buttercream with fresh pureed ripe mangoes on it.
