From: Mrs. Fields Cookie Cookbook Posted by: Donna Ransdell Preheat oven to 300 F. In a medium bowl combine flour soda and salt. Mix well with a wire whisk. In a large bowl blend sugars using an electric mixer set at medium speed. Add butter and mix to form a grainy paste scraping the sides of the bowl. Add eggs peanut butter and vanilla and mix at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the flour mixture and mix at low speed until just mixed. Don't overmix.
