How to Make Mary Jane's Peanut Butter Molasses Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter and brown sugar until smooth.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the molasses 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. Do not overmix.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- 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.
