Low Budget Recipe: Peanut cookies quick and inexpensive easy recipe

*pops open a can of pilsbury crescent rolls, roll out, do not separate.

mixes some peanu tbutter with frosting 1:1 ratio, spreads out on top of dough

pops open another can of crescent rolls and puts on top of peanut butter mixture

cut into 1 inch strips, cut each strip in half. Twist and place on baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees until dough is golden brown.

Umm no.

While I have no doubt these taste good. These do not look quick or inexpensive or easy.

It requires 21 steps, that’s already a lot of steps for a cookie recipe. It requires deep frying peanuts which is always potentially dangerous and not something everyone can do without experience, especially children. And if you only do it once and don’t reuse the oil that’s expensive and wasteful. Lamination of the 3 layers like a crossisnt is fickle at best. careful hand cutting and twisting all things I wouldn’t consider easy (especially compared to a standard cookie dough). the video recipe is wasteful cutting the trimmings to make cosmetically perfect cookies, which doesn’t exactly fit the budget food ideals. A filled handmade twisted cookie is by no means quick.

They look delicious but I do not think they fit this subreddit.

This is really nice, I might try it

Wooow a recipe that doesnt start with a story! Thankyou
