Ingredients
– 1 cup creamy peanut butter
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 cup brown sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– ½ teaspoon salt
– 1 cup chocolate chips (or Reese’s pieces for extra fun!)
Equipment Needed
– Mixing bowls
– Electric mixer (or a good ole whisk and some elbow grease)
– Measuring cups and spoons
– Baking sheet
– Parchment paper
– Cookie scoop or tablespoon
Step-by-Step Instructions
First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, start by combining your creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. I find that using an electric mixer makes this step a breeze, but a whisk works just as well if you’re up for a workout! Mix until everything is creamy and well-blended. Then, add in the eggs and vanilla extract, and continue to mix until smooth. This mixture is already smelling heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
