Remember when I promised you eHow videos? Well, I’m going to try to get past my embarrassment and share them, yikes! You already have the recipe, but I figured you might like the video for how to make these Big, Chewy, Sweet and Salty Peanut Butter Cookies. I’d love to hear what you think!

You are so adorable!! Seriously, love this. Especially because it means I got a hint of Lauren in my life this morning.
I heart you!
Yay! And I give you serious props for doing a video. I would be terrified to do that.
Luckily I was too distracted that day to be too nervous. However, sharing the video made me VERY nervous!
I like how you used four of my favorite words to describe cookies: big, chewy, sweet, salty :)
Haha me too:-)
You are TOO cute. Loved it!
Thanks, Kayle!
You did *such* a good job Lauren! i could never, ever do videos – way outside my comfort zone :)
Thanks, Tracey! I was so distracted that day that I wasn’t all that nervous after the first one, but I was nervous to share lol!
I love this video! You’re such a natural behind the camera and it really makes me want to get into the kitchen and start baking!
You are too kind! Time to bake in your new kitchen!!!
Great job on the video!
Thanks, Jeanette!
I don’t have extra large eggs. How many large eggs can I use as a substitute? Thanks
Hi Laurel- I think you can use 2 large eggs and it should be okay! However, if you double the recipe I’d suggest using 5 large eggs in place of the 4 x-large eggs. Let me know if you make the cookies!
I made them!!!! So yummy. I ended up buying some x-large eggs. I tried weighing out ingredients but hard to get it exactly at weight you suggest, so I just used the measuring cups. I appreciated your video with the mixer. I just got a KitchenAid and this was the third time I used it. Still getting the hang of it. I used chunky peanut butter and mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. Next time I will use regular semi-sweet chocolate chips. Loved the pretzels in the cookies. A surprise crunch. My husband doesn’t think they will last till the morning!!!! I hope you will do more videos.
I’m so thrilled to hear that! If you do decide to start weighing your ingredients to bake, I’d suggest investing in an electronic scale. I have one made my OXO that I love and I think was only about $30. Something to think about down the line:-)
I’ll look into it. My scale will do 5.5 oz, but not 5.58, so that was where I had the problem.
what a great video! and I was sold on these cookies at the title alone!
Awesome video, Lauren! You were so professional and calm (I would freak out if I have to talk and bake in front of a camera). And what a beautiful website! I see that you have lots of products and a big fan base now. I’m very happy for you!
So good to hear from you, Peiying! Thank you so much for the nice note!!
Awesome video! The cookies look divine :)
I definitely should NOT have come here on an empty stomach! Next time, I will know better. LOVE this website! Thank you!
Thank you, Annie!
