Easy Peanut Butter Cookies
Easy Peanut Butter Cookies - super soft and delicious, these classic cookies are loaded with peanut butter flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups creamy peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup peanut butter baking chips optional
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 325° F and line a baking sheet (or 2) with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients except peanut butter chips until well combined. The dough will be thick and sticky.
-
Gently fold in peanut butter chips, if using.
-
Using a medium cookie scoop, drop cookies about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Gently press with a fork to make a criss-cross pattern and flatten the cookies a bit. (*If your fork starts to stick, spray with a bit of non-stick cooking spray.)
-
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cookies just begin to turn light golden brown at the edges. Make sure not to over-bake! They may look undercooked but they will set up a bit more as they cool.
-
Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely. (Cookies will be fragile so move carefully and wait to eat until they cool completely!)
