It ends up slightly less sweet if you use the peanut butters without sugar in them, but you can add a little extra granulated sugar if you decide you want them sweeter, though I never found it necessary and I have a huge sweet tooth. (The person from whom I got the recipe basically said 'you can use any kind of peanut butter you want, but I wouldn't use *specific brand* because it's got extra hydrogenated oils added and the last time I did, it ended up leaking oil in a disturbing way.')
I ended up baking them a lot for a while because they are gluten free, and we had some people around who needed that and that way they still got to feel like they got cookies, too. (Obviously, not vegan and not good if you have people with peanut allergies, though I think I saw that you can do it with other nut butters and sunflower butter, but I haven't personally tried.)
