Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Optional: chocolate chips or chopped peanuts for added texture
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add the baking soda and salt to the mixture, stirring until everything is well incorporated. If you’d like to add chocolate chips or chopped peanuts, fold them in now.
- Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each cookie, as they will spread during baking.
- Press down lightly on the dough balls with a fork to create a crisscross pattern on top, adding a bit more charm to your cookies.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, until the edges are just golden. The centers will appear slightly soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your delicious, homemade Soft & Thick Peanut Butter Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
