Will this work with a "natural" peanut butter or do I need to use one of the "regular" peanut butters with added sugar and hydrogenated fats? Natural peanut butter should work just fine in this recipe; the confectioners sugar will absorb some of the fat and the filling sits in the middle of the cookie. However, you may find that natural peanut butter doesn't work as well in recipes where the peanut butter is incorporated into the dough itself. Tara @The Baker's Hotline
