looking for easy inexpensive cookie recipe
We are doing our annual peanut butter drive at work and I'd rather do the fund raising aspect and make cheap cookies and sell them at work for $1 each than go buy 3 jars of peanut butter. I'm thinking no bakes are easy,I have most everything here so all I need to buy for them (ironically) is the peanut butter. But does anyone have any other awesome easy cookie recipes? All I ever make is the best ginger cookies ever around the holidays and I don't want to burn out on them too soon in the year.
Re: looking for easy inexpensive cookie recipe
I make these peanut butter dough balls from Mama Pea's blog

she uses organic stuff - I don't. I also don't put the chocolate chips in there.
I'm not much of a cook so I cheat when I make cookies. Betty Crocker cookie mixes are BOGO at Publix until tomorrow. I make those all the time.
I also make cookies using chocolate cake mix (I like the Pillsbury with one cup pudding in mix). Add half a cup of oil and 2 eggs and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. You can add peanut butter chips in the mix or colorful peanut butter M&M's on top for some color after you take them out.
Jena, you should try to find this! I am in love with whole wheat pastry flour. It is a million times better than regular whole wheat flour. For the longest time, I put off buying it because it is a little pricy (compared to all purpose or whole wheat) but it makes a huge difference in texture. I buy it at my natural grocer.
Sara, these probably aren't the type of cookie you have in mind, but I made these http://tashaandsage.blogspot.com/2011/02/peanut-butter-and-jelly-thumbprints.html for Beckett's birthday last year for favors, and they were well received. Plus they are different and fun.
That's all I've got. I don't make cookies too very often. My willpower isn't so great when cookies are involved.
