Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Soft Peanut Butter Cookies Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give two baking sheets a light greasing to ensure your cookies slide off easily.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, grab your electric mixer and combine softened margarine, creamy peanut butter, white sugar, brown sugar, a fresh egg, and a splash of vanilla extract.
Step 3
Beat these ingredients together until the mixture becomes light and fluffy, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
Step 4
Next, gently fold in all-purpose flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt, mixing until everything is beautifully combined.
Step 5
To make the dough easier to work with, pop it in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
Step 6
Once chilled, take the dough out and roll it into walnut-sized balls, placing them about 2 inches apart on your prepared baking sheets.
Step 7
Now, it’s time for the magic to happen! Bake your cookies in the preheated oven for 7 to 10 minutes, keeping a close eye on them until the edges turn a lovely golden brown—just be careful not to overbake! Once they’re done, let the cookies cool on a wire rack, allowing their flavors to settle.
Step 8
Finally, store your delicious creations in an airtight container to keep them soft and scrumptious for days to come.
Step 9
Enjoy every bite of your homemade peanut butter cookies!.
