Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix together until smooth and well incorporated.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, salt, and baking soda to the bowl. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined, forming a thick dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion the dough into roughly 1-inch balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Optional: Use a fork to press down on each dough ball, making a crisscross pattern on the top of the cookies.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops have a slight golden hue. The cookies will appear soft in the center but will firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft, chewy peanut butter cookies!
