Time 30m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon table salt
3 tablespoons reduced-calorie margarine, stick-variety
2 tablespoons reduced-fat peanut butter
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 large egg white
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
cooking spray (2 sprays)

Steps:

  • Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl; mix well and set aside.
  • Combine margarine and peanut butter in a mixing bowl; beat on medium speed until blended and smooth. Gradually add both sugars and beat until blended; add egg white and vanilla and beat until smooth. While beating on low speed, gradually add flour mixture and mix until just blended.
  • Transfer dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and roll into an 8-inch log. Wrap log in plastic wrap and freeze for 2 hours. (Note: You can make the cookie dough up to 3 days in advance and freeze until ready to bake.).
  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat 2 large baking sheets with cooking spray.
  • Remove cookie dough from freezer and slice crosswise into about twenty-four 1/3-inch-thick slices; place slices 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake until golden around edges, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely. Yields 1 cookie per serving.
  • Flavor Booster: Browned margarine has a nutty flavor that enhances a peanut butter cookie. Melt the margarine in a small skillet until it sizzles and just begins to brown. Remove from heat and freeze for 20 minutes, or until firm, before using in recipe.

Tips:

  • Use natural peanut butter: It's essential to use natural peanut butter without added sugar or oils for a healthier cookie.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at 350°F: This temperature is low enough to prevent the cookies from burning, but high enough to ensure they're cooked through.
  • Let the cookies cool completely: Letting the cookies cool completely allows them to set and firm up before enjoying them.
