Now add the flour,salt,baking powder and soda and mix it well.Add the milk and stir it well till everything mixed well.

Roll the dough to a smooth ball,keep it on the baking tray 1 inch apart and flatten with flour dusted fork.Bake it for 15-17 minutes(mine took exactly17 mins) or till golden color.Cool it on a wire rack.

Enjoy.......

I used white sugar which can be substituted with brown sugar.
The amount of peanut butter can be increased up to 1cup.
Instead of milk,butter milk can be used.
For extra sweetness the balls can be rolled in the sugar before flatten it.
For the given measurements ,I got 35 cookies.
