Mix all ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined and a dough forms.

Shape the cookies: Using a teaspoon, scoop out small portions of the dough and drop them onto an ungreased baking sheet. Leave some space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
-
Bake the cookies: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) or 350°F (175°C), depending on your preference. Bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes at 300°F or 8-12 minutes at 350°F, until they are lightly golden around the edges.
-
Cool: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Variation: Get creative with your cookies by adding chocolate chips, raisins, or nuts to the dough. Simply fold in your desired add-ins before shaping the dough into cookies. Let your imagination guide you!
