→ Main Ingredients:

01 - 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
02 - 1 cup sugar
03 - 1 egg
04 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine peanut butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and combined.
03 - Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls. Place on baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Use a fork to press down in a crisscross pattern.
04 - Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are set. Centers will firm up as they cool.
05 - Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

# Notes:

01 - For a chewier texture, slightly underbake the cookies.
02 - Add chopped peanuts or chocolate chips for extra crunch.
03 - Use a sugar substitute like monk fruit or coconut sugar for a sugar-free option.
