Description

These thick and chewy peanut butter cookies are packed with flavor and perfect for family baking sessions. With their comforting texture and rich peanut butter taste, they become a go-to treat for any occasion.


Ingredients

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanillin extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon sea salt


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix in peanut butter, ensuring a smooth consistency.
Add the egg and vanillin extract, and blend well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Use the back of a spoon or a fork to create a crisscross pattern on top of each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a halal preparation, ensure that all ingredients are certified halal.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
For extra chewiness, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping and baking.
