My Favorite Peanut Butter Cookies

Components:

  1. One cup (230g) of creamy peanut butter (if natural, mix thoroughly)
  2. One cup (200g) of sugar, granulated
  3. 110g or 1/2 cup of packed brown sugar
  4. One big egg
  5. One teaspoon vanilla extract
  6. A half-tsp of baking powder
  7. One-half teaspoon baking soda
  8. One-fourth teaspoon salt
  9. Add either chopped peanuts or 1/2 cup (90g) chocolate chips for texture.

Guidelines:

Warm up the oven:

  • Set the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Use silicone baking mats or parchment paper to line a baking pan.

Combine Ingredients:

  • Brown sugar, granulated sugar, and peanut butter should all be combined in a sizable mixing dish. Blend until well combined and smooth.
  • Pour the egg and vanilla essence into the bowl and stir to combine.
  • Mix the baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate basin.
  • Mixing until just incorporated, gradually add the dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture. At this point, mix in any chocolate chips or chopped peanuts.

Form of Cookies:

  • Partition the dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, leaving about 2 inches between each portion.
  • To help the cookies spread equally, gently press each ball of cookie dough with the back of a fork to make a crisscross pattern.

Cook:

  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, in a preheated oven. Although they may appear under baked, the cores will solidify as they cool.
  • After taking the cookies out of the oven, allow them to rest for about five minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Serve:

  • The cookies can be eaten warm or at room temperature. They taste great either by themselves or with a glass of milk.

Advice for Making the Best Peanut Butter Cookies:

  • Peanut Butter: For the finest flavor and texture, use a premium creamy peanut butter. Before measuring, make sure you thoroughly whisk your natural peanut butter.
  • Sugar: The perfect harmony of sweetness and chewiness is achieved in these cookies by combining brown and granulated sugar.
  • Baking Time: Watch the cookies closely in the last few minutes of baking to make sure they don’t overbake. Their core should be soft, and the edges should be golden.
  • Cooling: A few minutes of cooling the cookies on the baking sheet aids in their correct setting and keeps them from crumbling when transferred.

You can make delicious peanut butter cookies with this recipe that are soft, chewy, and will quickly become a favorite. Have fun creating and enjoying these traditional sweets!
