Peanut Butter Cookies

Peanut Butter Cookies

½ Cup butter
1  Cup brown sugar
½ Cup sugar
½ cup peanut butter
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla
1 ½ cup flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda

Cream butter, sugars, vanilla, egg and peanut butter. Sift remaining dry ingredients together. Combine the two mixtures. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Shape into small balls and place on cookie sheet. Dip fork in sugar (to keep from sticking) and lightly press with fork horizontal and then perpendicular. Bake 10 minutes until browned at 325 degrees. For thicker cookies, increase flour to 2 cups. Variation: mix in pkg. of chocolate (or other flavored) chips, roll into balls, don’t press with fork.
