Step-by-Step Instructions
To kick off this scrumptious dessert, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. I love using my electric mixer for this step; it really helps blend everything together smoothly. As you mix, you’ll notice the peanut butter and sugars coming together to form a rich, creamy batter that just smells heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
