Our Family’s Favorite Peanut Butter Cookies

We recently celebrated National Peanut Butter Cookie Day by baking one of our all-time favorite family recipes — and we couldn’t keep it to ourselves. These soft, chewy cookies are packed with peanut butter goodness, and they’ve been passed down and loved in our family for years.

Whether you marked the day or missed it, this is one recipe worth baking any time. And when made on our DaTerra Cucina ceramic cookie sheet, the results are even better—golden, evenly baked, and so easy to clean up after.

Our Family Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

Makes: About 4 dozen
Bake Time: 8–10 minutes

Ingredients

½ cup butter

½ cup peanut butter

½ cup sugar

½ cup brown sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1¼ cups all-purpose flour

¾ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Cream the butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar together until smooth.

Beat in the egg and vanilla.

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

Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a dough forms.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on a DaTerra Cucina cookie sheet.

Press each cookie with a fork to make the signature crisscross.

Bake for 8–10 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.

Let cool (and try not to eat them all in one sitting!)
