Let’s Bake!
1. PREHEAT oven to 350°F.
2. Beat butter and sugar on medium speed with electric in large bowl until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla. Beat just until blended.
3. ADD flour, peanut butter powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until combined. Gently stir in any add-ins at this time.
4. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2-inches apart onto baking sheet. Using a fork, flatten slightly in a crisscross pattern with tines of the fork. I used the back of a soup spoon to flatten the ones with cranberries.
5. BAKE one baking sheet at a time 8 to 10 minutes, or until set and just beginning to brown around the edges. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet. Then, move cookies to cooling rack to cool completely.
Tips:
- You can mix up and chill the dough for up to 24 hours.
- For a special treat, sandwich two cookies together with a scoop of ice cream in the middle. Roll the edge in chopped candy bar or nuts.
