Gracie, a true aficionado of peanut butter, loves these cookies; they are one of her favorite treats.
I modified a recipe out of necessity once, and this has become a classic.
Peanut Butter Cookies
(Makes 2 dozen)
Ingredients:
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1) Heat oven to 350 degrees.
2) In the bowl of an electric mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, peanut butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, and mix on medium speed until well combined.
3) In a medium mixing bowl, sift flour and baking soda together. Add to the butter mixture, and beat just to combine.
4) Scoop onto baking sheets, placing cookies 3 inches apart. Dip the tines of a fork in warm water, press the dough balls slightly with fork.
5) Bake until golden brown, 18-20 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool.
