Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, salt, and baking soda to the bowl. Stir until fully incorporated and the dough comes together.
If using optional mix-ins like mini chocolate chips or chopped peanuts, gently fold them into the dough at this stage.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie and roll it into a ball with your hands. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Use the tines of a fork to gently press each dough ball down, creating a crisscross pattern on the top of each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies are slightly golden. Avoid overbaking for soft and chewy cookies.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these delicious Easy P Nutty Cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
