STEP BY STEP PICTURES - Peanut Butter Cookies

Take 1 cup of peanut butter, 3/4 cup of powdered sugar and  1egg, keep all the three ingredients ready before starting the recipe and preheat your oven to 170℃

 Take a wide bowl and start combining all the ingredients starting from peanut butter. Add 1 cup of peanut butter, you can either use store bought peanut butter or you can prepare it by yourself easily with only few ingredients like peanuts, honey and a pinch
of salt. You can check out my homemade peanut butter recipe if you want to make it by yourself.

Now add 3/4 to 1 cup of powdered sugar depends upon your sweetness. Here I have added 3/4 cups of finely powdered sugar and followed by that, crack in 1 egg.

After adding all the ingredients, combine everything with a spatula. Don't over knead it. Once you get a nice and smooth dough check for the sweetness. 3/4 cup of sugar was enough for me but if you feel like adding some more you can add another 1/4 cup.

Now scoop a small portion of dough with a spoon, start rolling it with your hands and place the rolled out dough ball on a baking tray lined with some parchment paper. Likewise start rolling all the balls and place them on tray by leaving some space between each of them.

After arranging the balls in baking tray, use a clean fork to shape the cookies. Gentle press and shape the dough balls. This is an usual way of shaping peanut butter cookies. You can also create fork impression on both the directions.

Now bake these cookies at 170℃ preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until it's done. These cookies don't expand too much and they'll get cooked quickly, that means you have to keep an eye on them to check whether they're done or not.

  Crunchy and tasty peanut butter cookies are ready to be enjoyed. After baking transfer them to a cooling rack and let them cooldown completely. Store them in an airtight container. Here I have included my video recipe of peanut butter cookies, do check that out..
