Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
- 1 cup Light Brown Sugar, packed
- 1 large Egg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the peanut butter and brown sugar on medium-high speed until creamy, about 2 minutes.
- Add the egg and beat on low until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls onto the prepared pan.
- Grease a fork and press down on each cookie ball twice to create a crisscross design.
- Bake for 7 minutes or until the edges are just starting to brown.
- Allow to cool on the pan for 1 to 2 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients for better texture.
- Don't overbake; the cookies firm up after removal from the oven.
- Feel free to add chocolate chips or crushed nuts for variation.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
