Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula
  • Measuring Spoons
  • measuring cups
  • cookie scoop/ice cream scoop
  • Cookie Sheet
  • Aluminum Foil

Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 egg room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cup flour spooned and levelled
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 salt

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl mixing bowl, add butter at room temperature and stir until well combined
  • Add granulated sugar and mix until well combined and creamy.
  • Add peanut butter to butter and sugar mixture, and mix in until well combined and creamy.
  • Add brown sugar and stir until well combined. Ensure that no extra batter it stuck at the bottom of the bowl on on the spatula.
  • Add in egg and vanilla and mix until well combined.
  • Add flour, baking soda and salt. Mix until well combined and make sure that no extra batter it stuck at the bottom of the bowl on on the spatula.
  • Set bowl with cookie dough to the side. Get a cookie sheet and line with aluminum foil and scoop cookie dough onto the sheet. I use a 1 inch cookie (small cookie scoop) scoop but an ice cream scoop works great too! Makes approx. 20 one inch cookies or 12 three inch (large cookie scoop) cookies.
  • Chill for 1-12 hours in the fridge.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cook for 9-11 minutes, until bottom are a light golden brown and edges are stiff. They will continue to cook a little bit while cooling on the pan so don't cook them too long.
  • Cool for at least 10 minutes on the pan
  • Eat and enjoy!
