Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies
These cookies are incredibly easy to make and require just a few simple ingredients. Plus, they bake up soft and chewy, making them a favorite among friends and family.
Ingredients
- 1 box of cake mix (any flavor you prefer)
- 1 cup of peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
- 2 large eggs
- Optional: chocolate chips or chopped nuts for added texture
- Powdered sugar for coating (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, peanut butter, and eggs. Stir until fully combined and a dough forms.
- If you’re using chocolate chips or nuts, fold them into the dough at this stage.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space between each cookie for spreading.
- If you’d like, you can roll the dough balls in powdered sugar for a beautiful finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
