Ingredients

2 cups shortening
2 cups white sugar
2 cups brown sugar
2 cups peanut butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 eggs
5 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking soda

Steps:

Set out four 12x14-inch long pieces of waxed paper or plastic wrap.
Cream shortening, white sugar, brown sugar, and peanut butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Beat in vanilla extract and eggs until light and fluffy.
Mix together flour and baking soda in a separate bowl until well combined. Gradually add flour mixture into the egg mixture, stirring until blended.
Divide dough into 4 pieces and form each piece into an 8 to 10-inch roll. Wrap rolls in prepared waxed paper or plastic wrap and place in the freezer until ready to bake.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Remove dough from freezer and cut into 1-inch thick slices. Cut each slice into quarters and roll each piece into a ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet and use a fork to flatten with a nice crisscross design.
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly brown around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on racks.

Do not make these cookies. You will regret it.

I'm giving this recipe one star because it's the lowest rating I can give. These cookies are inedible.

These cookies are the worst thing I've ever tasted. I would not recommend them to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies turned out terrible. I'm really disappointed.

These cookies are a waste of time and ingredients. They didn't turn out at all like the picture.

I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to bake evenly. Some of them were overcooked while others were still undercooked.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

I love that these cookies can be made ahead of time and frozen. It's so convenient to have a batch of cookies on hand for unexpected guests.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover peanut butter.

I've tried many peanut butter cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are soft and chewy, and the peanut butter flavor is perfect.
