Ingredients:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for drizzling)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well blended and smooth.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of dough and shape them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
- Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on top of each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely smooth. Mix in the vegetable oil to create a drizzle consistency.
- Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of each cookie using a fork or a piping bag.
- Let the chocolate set before serving. Enjoy your delicious Chocolate Drizzled Peanut Butter Cookies!
