Cream: 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup peanut butter 1/2 cup white sugar 1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
Add: 1 egg 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Mix in: 1 1/4 flour 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp salt
Optional: 1/2 - 1 cup chocolate chips
Make 1 inch balls. Press down with a fork.
Bake at 375° for 10 to 12 minutes.
The recipe is for peanut butter cookies. And I love chocolate, so I add chocolate chips to them. They’re completely optional. You can replace the chocolate chips for raisins or whatever else you enjoy!
I find this recipe makes softer, less dry peanut butter cookies, probably due to the butter, than the easy 3 recipe version found on the back of peanut butter containers.
I was wanting those peanut butter balls that are covered in chocolate and decided on cookies instead.
With that said, call them whatever you like!
