    For one thing this recipe was written INCORRECTLY!!! It is supposed to read: 1 c. butter, 2 c. sugar 2 tsp vanilla, 2 Tbsp MOLASSES, 1 1/2 tsp BAKING SODA!!!!!, 1 tsp b. powder, 1 c. peanut butter, 2 eggs, 2 1/2 c. flour!!! bake lower temp 325 is best.If you use brown sugar, molasses unnecessary. - 6/3/13

    Well i tried making this recipe and had to make ALOT of changes. use less baking soda! the first batch left a nasty after taste. and you have to put in at least 1.5cups more flour. other wise it was to runny for me to make actual balls with. The second batch i did that and added .5 sugar .5 pbuttr - 8/22/08
