Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick, room temperature)
  • 1 1/4 cups light brown sugar packed (can also use dark brown sugar)
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter creamy or crunchy
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt kosher
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 2 cups flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine brown sugar, white sugar, and butter in a large bowl. Beat until creamy. Add peanut butter, milk, egg, and vanilla. Mix until well blended.
  • Add baking soda, salt, and flour to the creamed mixture at low speed.
  • Use a 3 Tbsp. sized cookie scoop to scoop cookie dough onto the baking sheet. Flatten slightly in a crisscross pattern with a fork (if the dough sticks to the fork you can dip the fork in water first).
    Note: I bake 4 cookies, spaced out, per sheet for jumbo cookies.
  • Bake one baking sheet at a time for 12-13 minutes or until set and just beginning to brown. Do not over-bake.
  • Cool for 2 minutes on a baking sheet. Remove cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Wrap cooled cookies individually in plastic or store in an airtight container to keep them fresh. Cookies will stay soft for days.
I bake with light-colored metal baking sheets. If you bake on dark metal you may need to adjust the baking time so that the bottoms of the cookies don't get too dark.
