Classic Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat together peanut butter, softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, mixing until smooth.
Add the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until combined.
Shape the Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern.
Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy! Serve with a glass of milk for the ultimate treat.
