Thick and Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

Peanut Butter Choice: Use a creamy, processed peanut butter (like Jif or Skippy) for the best texture. Natural peanut butter tends to make the cookies drier.
Brown Sugar: Light brown sugar gives a slightly more subtle molasses flavor, while dark brown sugar will make them richer.
Chill Dough: For even thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
Chocolate Chips: Add ½ cup of chocolate chips (milk, dark, or semi-sweet) to the dough for a chocolate peanut butter combination.
Peanut Butter Chips: Substitute ½ cup of peanut butter chips for some of the chocolate chips, or use them instead of chocolate chips.
Sea Salt: Sprinkle a little flaky sea salt on top of the cookies after baking to enhance the flavors.
Storage: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
