After a long day of hiking and having girl time with a friend the last thing I was thinking about when I got home was baking. But when your kids ask to bake them some cookies, how could I say no to those cute little faces.I took these pictures with my iPhone.This is a quick recipe and the cookies are super soft.
This is what you will need:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 and 1/2 cups flour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a stand mixer, combine butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Add egg and vanilla, continuing to mix. In a separate bowl stir together baking soda, salt, and flour. Slowing incorporate dry ingredients into stand mixer, continuing to mix. Shape into 1 and 1/2 inch balls and arrange on a lined baking sheet.
Slightly flatten each ball of dough with a fork. Bake 8-9 minutes. Allow to cool.
