  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda

  • In a large bowl cream together butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar and peanut butter.
  • Add in eggs and vanilla and beat well.
  • Stir in baking soda, salt and flour and combine until just incorporated.
  • Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls. *I use a 1 1/2 inch cookie scoop to make sure all cookies are the same size.
  • Roll each dough ball in remaining 1/3 cup sugar and place onto a cookie sheet.  12 per cookie sheet evenly spaced out.
  • Use the side of a fork to make indented lines on top of the cookie creating a criss cross pattern.

  • Repeat with remaining cookies.
  • Once cooled store in an airtight container.
