Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream together butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother dough.
  • Chill the dough for thicker cookies.
