Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
• Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
• Use a fork to create paw print designs on each cookie.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
• Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
