Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Line a large baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together on high until creamy and smooth, 2-3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined.
  3. Using a heaping tablespoon, spoon the dough and roll into 1 1/4-inch balls. Place on prepared cookie sheet and place approximately 2-3 inches apart. Use a fork to press the cookies down, creating a cross-hatch pattern.
  4. Bake in the preheated 350 degree oven for about 8 minutes.
  5. Allow cookies to finish cooling completely on baking sheet before removing. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Conventional peanut butter works best in this recipe. Results using natural peanut butters may vary.
