These cookies came out insanely delicious!

Directions
Preheat your oven to 350ºF.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicon baking liners. (I used my Silpat.)

In a large bowl mix the peanut butter with 1 cup sugar.  Stir until well blended.  Add the egg, baking powder and vanilla.  Stir well.

Pour some additional sugar in a small bowl, and take 1 tablespoon the dough and roll in a ball. Roll the dough ball in the sugar and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the dough.

Take a dinner fork, stick it in the sugar and gently press down each dough ball to flatten, then turn the fork 90 degrees and gently press again, making the traditional hatch markings of a peanut butter cookie.

Bake for 10 minutes. Take the cookies out of oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Gently transfer the cookies to a rack to finish cooling.
