Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter: This will result in a smoother and creamier cookie.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just set and the centers are still slightly soft: This will give you a chewy cookie.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.
