3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie with Vanilla for 20 Servings

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Note: Proper preheating ensures the cookies set immediately upon entry.
2. Line a baking sheet. Use parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
3. Combine ingredients. In a large bowl, add the 1 cup of peanut butter, 1 cup of sugar, the egg, and the vanilla extract.
4. Stir vigorously. Use a spatula to mix until the dough becomes smooth, shiny, and pulls away from the bowl.
5. Portion the dough. Scoop rounded tablespoons (about 1 inch) and roll them between your palms into smooth balls.
6. Space them out. Place the balls on the sheet about 2 inches apart to allow for slight spreading.
7. Create the pattern. Press a fork into the top of each ball, then rotate 90 degrees and press again until the signature crosshatch appears.
8. Bake for 10 minutes. Monitor them closely; the edges should be lightly golden but the centers will still look soft.
9. Cool on the pan. Allow them to rest for at least 5 minutes until the structure firm up enough to move.
10. Transfer to a rack. Move them to a wire rack to finish cooling completely for maximum crispness.
