Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Add the egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Stir well until a cohesive dough forms.
Step 4
If you’re using chocolate chips, fold them into the dough at this stage.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 6
Gently press each dough ball with the back of a fork in a crisscross pattern to flatten slightly.
Step 7
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just set and the tops are slightly cracked. Be careful not to overbake; they should still look a little soft in the center.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve and enjoy your delicious Fooled-Me Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies!
