Peanut Butter Temptations II Recipe

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and softened butter until light and fluffy.

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture, mixing until just combined.

Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and roll each ball in the granulated sugar.

Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Use a fork to flatten each dough ball in a criss-cross pattern.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
