Scandisk, fans, not panicking, GrandMa's Peanut Butter Big Cookies
Eric got online earlier to make some devious suggestions, and also advised me to run ScanDisk. From the results of that (no aborted scans here), he told me not to panic about my hard disk dying. Maybe the whining sound IS coming from a fan... even if he can get me a 120GB for much cheaper (with little to no shipping and handling), I might still get this 300GB deal. (it's not from an auction, like he thought) When's the next time I'll get a deal like that, I ask you?! I just hope that the hard drives don't depreciate over time like cars do! Not that we think I *need* 300GB, but who knows!
GrandMa's Peanut Butter Big Cookies
When these cookies are cool, be sure to seal them up real super duper tight in something like Tupperware or a Ziploc bag. That's the way to keep these puppies moist and chewy like the original GrandMa's Big Cookies. In fact, the real product claims to be the only national cookie brand that guarantees the freshness of the product or double your money back. That's very big of the current manufacturer, Frito-Lay, which purchased the GrandMa's Cookies brand from General Mills back in 1980.
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1/2 cup Peter Pan peanut butter
1 1/4 cups packed dark brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
2. Beat shortening, peanut butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, and salt together in a large bowl until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking soda. Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet mixture while beating.
4. Roll 3 tablespoon-size portions of the dough into a ball in your hands and press to 1/2-inch flat on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Be careful not to overcook, or the cookies will not be chewy, and you may negatively impact the full enjoyment potential of the product. Makes 14 to 16 cookies.
