Peanut Butter Cookies

1 Cup Shortening
1 Cup White Sugar
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 tsp. Vanilla
2 Beaten Eggs
1 Cup Peanut Butter
3 Cup Flour
1/8 tsp. Salt
2 tsp. Baking Soda

Cream shortening, sugars, vanilla. Add eggs, beat thoroughly. Stir in peanut butter, then dry ingredients. Form into balls, flatten with a fork dipped in water or flour to keep fork from sticking to dough. Bake at 350 degrees 8-10 minutes.

A favorite of David Youens'. I always made a batch when he was around.
