Preparing Peanut Butter Cookie Bites

Making these cookie bites is straightforward, even for those new to baking! You’ll begin by preheating your oven, which sets the perfect stage for your cookies to bake evenly. You’ll combine dry ingredients in one bowl and cream together your wet ingredients in another, followed by mixing them together for that perfect cookie dough. It’s as simple as rolling the dough into small balls, flattening them with a fork for that classic crisscross pattern, and then baking them to perfection.

• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup peanut butter
