Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric hand or stand mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Cooling rack
  • Fork (for crosshatch pattern)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Kraft peanut butter smooth or crunchy
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Get your oven ready to pop in the cookies at 350°F (175°C) and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine the Wet Ingredients: Cream together the butter, Kraft peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  • Add the Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until combined.
  • Whisk together dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Add the dry ingredients little by little to the wet mixture, turning until a floppy dough forms.
  • Make the Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough, then roll them into balls. Put balls on prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Make Crosshatch Pattern: With a fork, gently press down on each ball to slightly flatten and form a crosshatch design.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Do not overbake, as you need to keep the cookies soft.
  • Cool: Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer cookies to a cooling rack.
  • Enjoy: These cookies will be your go-to!

Notes

For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
Light peanut butter can be used, but the cookies may have a slightly different texture. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil to maintain richness.
