GIANT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°.
• In large bowl, combine sugars, margarine, peanut butter, vanilla and egg; beat well.
• Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup and level off.
• Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; mix well.
• If you are making the large cookies, it helps to chill the dough for an hour or so at this point, before shaping. It seems to make a firmer cookie--less likely to break. If you aren't concerned about that, you can skip this step.
• Shape about 1/4 cup dough (for 3-inch cookie) into a ball and place 4 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet (6 per sheet).
• Bake at 375° for 13-16 minutes.
• Remove from cookie sheet and cool completely on wire rack.
