Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup sugar white, or half brown for chew
  • 1 large egg
  • pinch salt Optional
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 350F (175C) and line a baking tray.
  2. Stir the peanut butter, sugar and egg into a smooth dough (fold in chocolate chips if using).
  3. Roll into 12 balls, place on the tray, and flatten each with a fork in a crosshatch.
  4. Bake 10 minutes until the edges are just set. Cool on the tray for 5 minutes before moving.

Notes

The dough is soft - if it feels too sticky to roll, chill it for 10 minutes first.
