Description

There's something about a soft cookie that makes me eat way more than I should. And when you throw in creamy peanut butter, I can easily eat 3, 4, 5 or more in one sitting! This is a recipe that my kids ask for, almost every week. That and the chocolate chip cookie recipe my mom gave me...but that's a topic for another day!

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cups Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 3/4 cups Soften Butter
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 cup Packed Brown Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 3 cup Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350*
  2. Mix peanut butter & butter until smooth with an electric mixer.
  3. Add sugar and beat on high until light & fluffy.
  4. Add eggs and vanilla with mixer on slow speed.
  5. Add flour, baking soda, and salt with mixer on slow speed until combined.
  6. Roll 1-inch balls in sugar (optional) and place 2-inches apart on the cookie sheet.
  7. Press lightly with a fork.
  8. Bake for 8 - 10 mins, just until they are set (a slight sheen on the center of the cookie is good!).
  9. Remove from cookie sheet and cool.
