5 INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F / 175 C and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat. Set aside.
• Cream together the brown sugar and egg with a hand mixer or stand mixer at a medium speed for a minute, until well combined. If you don't have an electric mixer, give this a good whisk by hand!
• Add the peanut butter, baking soda, and milk chocolate and mix on a low speed until the cookie dough is smooth and no clumps of brown sugar remain.
• Scoop or roll 12 cookie dough balls (about 1 1/2 tablespoons each) and place on the prepared pan.
• Bake for 9-10 minutes then remove from the oven. Press a few additional chocolate chips on top of the cookies and add a sprinkle of sea salt.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.

• Bake in the preheated 350 degree oven for about 8 minutes.
• Allow cookies to finish cooling completely on baking sheet before removing. Store in an airtight container.
