Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together the peanut butter, butter, and both sugars until smooth.
  3. Add the milk and vanilla, stirring well to combine.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  6. Roll the dough into small balls (about an inch wide) and place them on the baking tray.
  7. Use a fork to press a crisscross pattern on top of each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.
  10. Store in an airtight container for up to a week (if they last that long!).
