Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350º and move the oven rack to the middle position.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the peanut butter and unsalted butter on medium low until smooth.
  • Next, add in your brown sugar and honey. Beat with the mixer on medium low until all ingredients are well combined.  Stop once to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
  • Crack in your egg and add the vanilla. Mix until thoroughly blended.
  • Add in the flour, salt and baking soda.
  • With the mixer on low, stir until all ingredients are just combined, stopping once to scrape the sides of the mixing bowl.
  • Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop the cookie dough onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper. Keep cookies about 2 inches apart.
  • Gently flatten the centers of the cookie dough using the back of a fork dipped in flour, making a crisscross pattern.
  • Bake in a 350º oven for 8-10 minutes. The edges will just start to turn brown and the centers of the cookies will be puffed.
  • Allow cookies to sit for 5 minutes before removing the cookies from the pan. They will flatten as they cool.

Notes

*If you only have creamy peanut butter on hand, use that and crush up 1/4 cup of dry roasted peanuts or omit the nuts entirely!
**For a thicker cookie, use Teddie brand natural peanut butter.
