Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter softened at room temperature
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar packed
  • 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter
  • 1/8 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp large egg yolk lightly beaten
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda
  • 1/8 tsp fine sea salt

Notes

Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Make-Ahead: The cookie dough can be prepared, shaped into a disk, and frozen on the baking sheet. Once solid, wrap tightly and freeze for up to 1 month. Bake from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes to the baking time. Variations: For a crunchier texture, add 1 tbsp of chopped peanuts. For a chocolate twist, press a few chocolate chips into the top before baking. This recipe is easily doubled for two cookies.
