9. Why do we rest peanut butter cookies?

Because peanut butter cookies are rich and heavy, you want to let them rest on the cookie sheet for a few minutes away from the heat of the oven before you place them on a wire rack to cool. Allowing them to rest gives the bottoms of the cookie time to set and this prevents them from melting through the bars of your wire cooling rack and getting ruined!
