Peanut Butter Cookies

This is a mom recipe. They're wonderful and tasty. We love them.

Ingredients
1 1/4 cups flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Stir together flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Beat butter and peanut butter for 30 seconds. Add sugar and brown sugar; beat til fluffy.  Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Add dry ingredients to beaten mixture and beat til well blended. Shape dough into 1 inch balls; roll in additional sugar if desired (I've never tried that way). Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Press crisscross markings with a fork. Bake at 375 about 10 minutes or til done. Cool 1 minute, remove to rack. Cool.
