Peanut Butter Cookies
Baking peanut butter cookies since I was a kid. Nothing beats warm cookies with a glass of milk!

Steps for Peanut Butter Cookies
Here's a step-by-step instructions for making Peanut Butter Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- Mix first six ingredients.
- Add the rest of the ingredients.
- Mix well.
- Roll into balls and press down with a fork dipped in sugar or flour.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes on ungreased cookie sheet (I usually grease my cookie sheet anyway). Ovens vary so your baking time may be less. Just keep an eye on them.
- Ofen auf 375º vorheizen.
- Mischen Sie die ersten sechs Zutaten.
- Füge die restlichen Zutaten hinzu.
- Gut vermischen.
- Zu Kugeln rollen und mit einer in Zucker oder Mehl getauchten Gabel andrücken.
- 10-12 Minuten auf ungefettetem Backblech backen (normalerweise fette ich mein Backblech sowieso ein). Die Öfen variieren, sodass Ihre Backzeit möglicherweise kürzer ist. Behalte sie einfach im Auge.
- Precalienta el horno a 375º.
- Mezcle los seis primeros ingredientes.
- Agrega el resto de los ingredientes.
- Mezcle bien.
- Enrolle en bolas y presione hacia abajo con un tenedor mojado en azúcar o harina.
- Hornea de 10 a 12 minutos en una bandeja para hornear sin engrasar (yo suelo engrasar mi bandeja para hornear de todos modos). Los hornos varían, por lo que el tiempo de horneado puede ser menor. Solo vigílalos.
- Préchauffer le four à 375°.
- Mélangez les six premiers ingrédients.
- Ajoutez le reste des ingrédients.
- Mélangez bien.
- Former des boules et les presser à l'aide d'une fourchette trempée dans du sucre ou de la farine.
- Cuire au four pendant 10 à 12 minutes sur une plaque à biscuits non graissée (je graisse habituellement ma plaque à biscuits de toute façon). Les fours varient donc votre temps de cuisson peut être moindre. Gardez juste un œil sur eux.

Notes
- Ensure the butter is at room temperature before mixing, as this helps achieve a smooth and creamy texture, which is essential for creating the right consistency in your peanut butter cookie dough.
- Be careful not to overbake the cookies; they should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven, as they will continue to firm up as they cool, resulting in a chewy texture.
