Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Jif Peanut Butter (creamy or crunchy)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (white or brown sugar)
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • reheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  • Mix the dough: In a medium bowl, combine the Jif Peanut Butter and granulated sugar. Stir until smooth. Add the egg, baking soda, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  • Shape the cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
  • Flatten the cookies: Press each dough ball lightly with a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
  • Bake: Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  • Cool: Let the cookies

Notes

  • Peanut Butter Type: You can use creamy or crunchy Jif Peanut Butter based on your preference. Creamy will result in smoother dough, while crunchy adds texture to the cookies.
  • Chill the Dough: If your dough is too sticky, refrigerate it for 15 minutes before shaping. This makes it easier to handle.
  • Customization: Feel free to add chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, or a sprinkle of sea salt for extra flavor.
