Peanut Butter Cookies

Method

1. 1

   Mix the dough

   Beat peanut butter, brown sugar, and caster sugar until combined. Add egg and vanilla. Mix in flour, bicarbonate of soda, and salt until a dough forms.

2. 2

   Roll in sugar

   Roll dough into balls (about 30g each). Roll each ball in caster sugar to coat.

3. 3

   Press the crosshatch

   Place on lined trays. Use a fork to press a crosshatch pattern into each cookie, flattening to about 1cm thick.

4. 4

   Bake

   Preheat oven to 180°C. Bake for 10–12 minutes until golden at the edges. They will be very soft — cool completely on the tray before moving.
