George Washington Carver, Alabama's American agricultural extension educator, extensively promoted the peanut. Carver compiled 105 peanut recipes from various cookbooks, agricultural bulletins, and other publications, and other publications, well-known for his promotions. How to Grow the Peanut and 105 Ways of Preparing it for Human Consumption in 1916. He created a Research Bulletin in 1916. How to Grow the Peanut and 105 Ways of Preparing it for Human Consumption. As one of its ingredients, the bulletin contained three recipes calling for crushed or chopped peanuts. However, peanut butter cookies were not one of them.

Incidentally, the peanut butter we know and love today didn't become commercially available until the 1920s. During this process, Joseph Rosefield prevented the peanut oil from separating from the solids in 1922. He developed homogenization and sold it to Peter Pan, a peanut butter company that started making peanut butter.

Pressed fork marks into our peanut butter cookies before baking, but no one knows why we press crisscrossed fork marks into our peanut butter cookies before baking. However, made peanut butter cookies would not be the same without a touch of decoration.
