TWD: Peanut Butter Change Ups

       SHARING.... That is my first word choice from the gratitude list. And that is because, I was so excited to find out our "Tuesday's with Dorie" was starting up again with a whole new cookbook from Dorie Greenspan entitled "Dorie's Cookies". 
       For our first challenge I chose to make the "peanut butter change up" cookies on page 152-154. I was a little surprised that the recipe called for nutmeg, I would have never thought to add nutmeg to my peanut butter cookies. They were very yummy and I loved SHARING them with my family.
