I love peanut butter. I'm one of those people who can eat a spoonful right from the jar, preferably the natural, crunchy kind.
Trader Joe's Valencia crunchy peanut butter is my favourite peanut butter of all time, so it's a damn shame that Trader Joe's does not exists in Canada. The Valencia peanuts lend a sweetness to the nut butter and heighten the peanut flavour. Whenever I'm in the States, I make a Trader Joe's stop to stock up on jars of peanut butter.
I've been on the hunt for the peanut butter cookie of my dreams but it's been a disappointing find; I want the cookie to taste like a spoonful of peanut butter. Is that even possible, aside from eating it straight out of the jar?
