In the Angel Food package for this month I got a jar of no name peanut butter - I don't use anything but Jif for sandwiches so I am looking for some recipes to use this in. I found the Peanut Butter cookie recipe posted - anyone else have any other suggestions?

We always buy generic and can't tell the difference from the Jiff we used to buy.

I got a jar of no name peanut butter thru SHARE Colorado and was a little leary of using it. I just made a batch of monster cookies with it. they turned out great. see if you can find a recipe that calls for the whole jar, that way you use it up in one baking/cooking session. Let us know what you end up making and how they turned out!
