Cooking or Baking with Peanut Butter? Here's a Hack You've Gotta Try

Cooking with peanut butter can be a messy job. It sticks in the measuring cup, then clings to the spatula—or your fingers—when you try to dig it out. To make your life easier, remove the lid from the jar and microwave in 10-second increments until the peanut butter is pourable. Measure using a liquid measuring cup, then add to your mixing bowl. (Any leftover peanut butter will firm up as it cools, so you can still use it for PB&Js.) Now, who wants peanut butter cookies?
