Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking sheets by greasing them lightly or lining them with parchment paper.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed. Beat until the mixture is smooth and well blended.

In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg. Add the beaten egg to the peanut butter mixture, along with the baking soda and salt. Mix on low speed until fully incorporated and the dough comes together.
4
Using your hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
5
Take a fork and press down gently on each dough ball to flatten them slightly, creating a crosshatch pattern on top.

Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for a minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
