These are the simplest, and probably the best peanut butter cookies you could make.
Josh bought a bag of peanut butter cookies from the grocery store hoping they would be like his favorite cookies he used to get in the lunch room in high school. Fresh, warm, melt in-your-mouth peanut butter cookies from the lunch line. Remember those? Well, the ones he bought at the store were nothing like those. So I became inspired.
I combined the following:
1 cup of organic crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

...And came up with these. Don't look at my cookie sheet.

And an original, pressed with a fork of course:
Packaged up and ready to go.
His roommate liked the ones with the chocolate chips, said they tasted like a reese's. Josh said I should make them every day. And anyone could, because they're that easy!
This batch only made 10 cookies, so I would double the recipe if I were taking them to a cookout or a party. Double... or triple... But they are sure to be a hit!
