Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter for a smooth and rich cookie texture.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown and the centers are set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying them. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
