Peanut Butter Cookies

These cookies are the kind of delightful treats that make every bite a moment to remember. They’re soft, chewy, and absolutely loaded with that creamy peanut butter flavor we all adore! Plus, they’re super easy to make—no complicated steps here, folks!

Ingredients

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional, but why not?)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Get that cozy atmosphere going for those cookies!
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix it up until it’s creamy and smooth—imagine you’re giving a peanut butter spa treatment!
3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the bowl. Give it another good mix until everything is well combined. Channel your inner cookie artist here!
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add this dry mixture to your peanut butter concoction. Stir until just combined. And if you want to throw in some chocolate chips, now’s your chance!
5. Using a spoon or your hands, scoop out small balls of dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Give them some space, as they like to spread out when baking!
6. Bake in your preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Your kitchen will smell heavenly, like a warm hug!
7. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This is the hardest part—letting them cool! The aroma will tempt you like no tomorrow!
8. And voila! You’ve made peanut butter cookies that will impress your family, friends, and even that neighbor you owe a favor!

Now, all that’s left to do is enjoy these delightful morsels with a tall glass of milk or whatever your heart desires. Happy baking!
