You can use your hands to roll them into balls but I was sick of washing my hands so used the 2 teaspoons

Using a fork press down on the ball then again at a 90°C angle. This will help the cookies bake more evenly.

Bake for 8-10 minutes until the bottom of the cookies are golden.

Such an easy bake - you can use any peanut butter - natural with no added ingredients or the cheap one that has added sugar and oil. We had this jar left as we bought a 1kg natural tub so thought this would be good to use it up. I used 80g sugar as it already has sugar in it. But if you use the natural peanut butter you might want a bit more sugar just to make it sweeter. They're nice but quite dry is the only downside to them.

If you're a first time baker and want an easy no fuss bake, you should try these as you can make them in less than an hour including cleaning as you don't need any utensils really!

Peanut Butter Cookies

I baked peanut butter cookies today as I have a seriously bad obsession with peanut butter lately which I really need to sort out cos it's not doing me any favours especially not on the waistline that's for sure! I wanted to make coconut cookies but we didn't have any coconut so had to make do with what we had.

Ingredients

225g unsalted butter (at room temperature, so it's soft)

175g caster sugar (if you just use white, you will get crunchy cookies, like biscuits)

175g soft brown sugar (if you just use brown, you will get chewy soft cookies)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs (at room temperature)

350g unsifted plain flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

Jar of crunchy peanut butter or anything you want chocolate, raisins, nuts, dried fruit

Preheat the oven to 190°C

You will need an electric whisk, wooden spoon, teaspoon, 2 bowls, 1 that you can use an electric whisk in & one just to mix your dried ingredients (flour, baking powder & salt)

Non-stick baking paper - I recommend Tesco own

Whisk the butter with an electric whisk until creamy

Once creamy add the brown and white sugar on a high speed until light and fluffy

Beat in the egg, 1 at a time

Once the eggs are mixed in, whisk in the vanilla extract

Mix the dry ingredients, flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl

Once that's been mixed you can add the dry ingredients gradually into the creamed mixture. Mixing on a low speed just until the flour is incorporated.

I then added about 5 tablespoons could've been more of crunchy peanut butter. My favourite is Tesco everyday value. I've had Morrison's own just isn't the same!

This point you can add whatever ingredients you want your cookies to be whether it's chocolate, nuts, dried fruit raisins, whatever you want!

Using a teaspoon spoon the cookie dough onto your baking tray. Just literally throw it on, doesn't have to be done in anyway the cookies with grow in your tray just make sure you give them space so they don't all stick together!

Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden. Then leave on a wire rack to cool.

I ended up with a lot of cookies! But there were good! Crispy around the edges, soft & chewy in the middle!
