Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Base
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Topping
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Method
 

Prepare the Dough
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix well until smooth.
  3. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to make it easier to handle.
Form and Bake the Cookies
  1. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls.
  2. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar to coat them well, then place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
  4. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
