Scale
- 1 egg
- 1 cup of peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
- 1 tsp of baking soda
- 1/4 cup of brown sugar
- 1/4 cup of white sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the peanut butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until well combined and smooth.
- Add the egg and baking soda to the mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
- Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls and place them on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- Use a fork to press a crisscross pattern onto the top of each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week. For a different texture, try using chunky peanut butter. If you prefer a sweeter cookie, increase the sugar slightly. The crisscross fork pattern is not just decorative; it helps the cookies bake evenly.
