Peanut Butter Peppermint Chip Cookies
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 5 mint chocolate sandwich candies, halved
- Preheat the oven to 350u0b0F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the peanut butter, sugar, egg, and extract in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Drop about 2 Tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets and press down gently to flatten. Then, with a fork, press the center in a criss-cross pattern, dipping the fork in water in between each cookie to moisten. Place a candy half in the middle. Repeat with the remaining dough and candies.
- Bake until slightly golden around the edges, rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, 18-20 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets about 10 minutes, and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
