Peanut butter cookie with a bite out of it

Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

I'm a sucker for chewy peanut butter cookies, and these are everything that I love and more. The sweet peanut butter taste, crunchy outside, and soft inside, mmm my mouth is watering just thinking about them.

Servings 48 small cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
 

Prepare.

  • Preheat oven to 350.

Make the Batter.

  • Cream together butter, sugar, and brown sugar on medium-low speed for about 5 minutes or until the mixture has lightened in color and looks fluffy.
  • Add in peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla and mix until combined.
  • Combine flour, salt, and baking soda, then add to mixture until combined.

Bake.

  • Spoon about a tablespoon of dough onto a cookie sheet and roll into a ball. Using a fork, make a checker pattern on the ball of the dough, pressing down enough to give the dough a flat surface on top. Repeat with remaining dough, spooning about 12 dough balls per cookie sheet.
  • Bake cookies for 11 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
  • Chow down!
