Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 65 grams light brown sugar
- 190 grams creamy peanut butter
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 teaspoons 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.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the creamy peanut butter, the egg, and the vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix 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 until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls of dough and roll them between your hands to form even spheres. Place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Using the back of a fork, gently press down on each cookie ball to create a crisscross pattern on the top.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; this is okay as they will firm up while cooling.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies with a glass of milk or enjoy them on their own for a delightful treat!
