Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups flour (I used ultragrain)
  • 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (ground)
  • 1/2 cups butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cups brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter (I used natural peanut butter)
  • 1 egg (large)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cups chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Set oven at 350. Sift together flour, salt, cinnamon, and soda. Combine butter, sugars, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla. Cream for 2 minutes. Add flour mixture; blend in and mix 1 minute. Roll into small balls and place onto a cookie sheet lined with a silpat or greased. Flatten, crisscross with a fork dipped in flour. Stick 3 chocolate chips on top of each. Bake 8-10 minutes.

Makes 6 dozen cookies.
