Ingredients

Units Scale

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl, then place the bowl in the fridge for 15-30 minutes to firm up so the cookies are easy to roll.
  3. Use a tablespoon to measure out even cookies, then roll into balls and place on the baking sheet.
  4. Take a fork and press it into the cookies in one direction, and then press it into the cookies in the opposite direction to make an X-shape in the cookies.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely before eating.

Notes

Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to a week.ย 

Use regular creamy peanut butter. Kraft, Jif and Skippy all work well. Natural peanut butter will result in a drier and more crumbly cookie.

You can optionally add chocolate chips to this recipe. Add 1/3 cup.ย 

You don’t have to chill the dough, but if the cookies are hard to roll, chill the dough.

Let the cookies cool. They will be very soft and puffy when you take them out of the oven so it’s important to let them cool before eating.
