I'M ADDICTED...

to Peanut Butter Cookies. 
I even hide them from Gordon (he can't have sugar) and he always manages to find them..dang.
One night I was craving something sweet and decided to make them. And that's all I want to eat now. I'll be a cow by convention time.
Maybe if that's ALL I eat, there won't be a problem...wishful thinking I know.
I need vibes to have the strength to stay away from them...

Are the some low fat, low calorie with yummy taste version of your fave brand available...?

My son loves peanut butter cookies and I used to make them all of the time, including to send him in college care packages. I forgot how much I love them until your post. Now I too am having cravings! Maybe I'll make a big batch and send half for Easter. Thanks for putting the thought in my head!
And Sanna, there is not a decent lowfat version of this treat!!! If you're gonna eat them then do it right!

That's the problem. I have to have about 10 at a time with milk - so I end up making about 30. I'm such a pig.
I'm with Jonny - PB cookies are a gift from God, yeah, that's right...so how can I deny him and not be obedient right? I'm reaching...help...

That's what I thought... Back when I was still eating cookies and cakes and sweet stuff like that (yes, now I just make them!  ) I tried to find a healthier/less expensive version of my fave. I cannot recall having any success with it, though...

Langa,
I say enjoy your PB cookies!! Life is too short to not eat your favourite things.
The way I allow myself something nice every day like cookies is by setting goals - little bit of housework, walking the dog each day. Then you're burning your cookie cals off and they feel like a real reward!
There are much worse things to be addicted to.
From another PB cookie addict.

You sure are missing out!! Check your pm's later and I'll send a recipe. It's one of my cookie"specialties". They are so good warm out of the oven, right up there with fresh chocolate chip cookies! We'll get you addicted like the rest of us!

I ate about a billion oatmeal cookies as a kid. Today, I just like cheese Danish with my designer coffee while waiting for the bus. It's my idea of heaven.

By the way, I have seen few peanut butter cookie recipes in here, but I've never made them myself, because I'm not sure that the "right kind" of peanut butter is available in here. What kind you use when you make the cookies?

I use any kind. Some supermarket brands are just as good. I'm going to venture out and try the crunchy peanut butter next.
The problem with these cookies is that they're so easy to make too.

All we buy is the generic, supermarket brands. It's made by the major manufacturers and costs about half as much.
Ya GOTTA use chunky for peanut butter cookies.

Just as I was afraid of... I haven't found anything crunchy or chunky peanut butter back here... Aguess that's another thing to add to Timo's "Thing's to bring from NYC" - list...

Don't get me wrong, Sanna - you can use creamy. But only if you can't get your hands on the chunky stuff.
