Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 180 grams Creamy peanut butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 1 piece Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 190 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion the dough into 24 equal-sized balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Using a fork, gently press down on each dough ball to flatten it slightly, creating a crisscross pattern on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking as the cookies will firm up more as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these delightful peanut butter cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
