Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Using a standing mixer or electric hand mixer, cream together butter, brown sugar and peanut butter until fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla and continue mixing.
Add flour, baking soda, and salt and mix just until combined.
Divide dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter each then roll in the ⅓ cup sugar.
Place on cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
Using the tines of a fork, make a criss-cross pattern.
Bake 10-11 minutes, until lightly browned on the bottom, but still soft in center.
Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for a few minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
I have tested this recipe with gfJules and Cup4Cup flour blends, both worked great. I cannot guarantee the results if you choose to use a different blend. I do not recommend Bob's Red Mill 1:1 for cookies.
