  • 1 egg

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375F.

  1. Line the cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl whisk mix together flour, salt, cinnamon and baking powder. Beat butter until smooth.  Add peanut butter and mix until well blended.
  3. Gradually add and beat in granulated sugar and brown sugar; continue to beat until fluffy.
  4. Add the egg, beat well and then add dry ingredients and stir just until blended.
  5. Form small balls, place them on prepared baking sheets 2inch apart. Flatten each ball by pressing with the tines of a fork.
  6. Bake 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
  7. Remove from the pans with a wide spatula and cool on wire racks.
