Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Dough
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and granulated sugar until smooth.
- Add the egg, vanilla extract, and baking soda to the mixture and stir until fully combined.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes for easier handling.
Shape and Bake
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
- Place the dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each cookie.
- Using a fork, gently press down on each cookie to create a crisscross pattern on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
For an extra touch, you can sprinkle a little sea salt on top of the cookies before baking. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
