These cookies deviate from tradition by not using peanut butter but instead using peanut butter powder for a faint peanut butter flavor.

I made 1/2 this recipe for some chicken strips I was trying to use. I cut the salt in half and added Spanish Parrika to equal amount of salt. I used Panko bread crumbs at 1.5 cups to regular bread crumbs at 1/2 cup. My picky kid ate the chicken stating it tasted a lot like the ONE brand and type he will eat. Praise the cooking gods at All Recipes!!!!

My first thought was that there was going to be way too much breading, so I halved the breading ingredients and there was plenty to coat all the pieces. I thought this needed more salt, but otherwise I liked the overall flavor. I used chicken tenders instead of cutting up chicken breasts into thin strips. Even with the bigger tenders, 12 to 14 minutes is more than enough time. 15 to 20 minutes would overcook thin 1″ strips. To get a nice crisp, I sprayed the tenders with my olive oil mister. If you don’t use oil or butter (as suggested) they won’t get crispy. A quick weeknight meal that the whole family will love!
