Method
Step 1
Heat oven to 350℉. Prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment paper, Silpat liner, or spray lightly with cooking spray.
Step 2
Using an electric mixer, or stand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light in color and fluffy looking. About 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Add peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat until combined and creamy.
Step 4
Add the baking soda and flour and mix on low speed just until combined and no flour pockets remain.
Step 5
Take about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball (should look like a golf ball). Place the additional 1/4 cup granulated sugar into a small bowl. Roll the dough balls in the sugar and place 12 cookie dough balls per cookie sheet.
Step 6
Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cookies will still be puffy and the middle should not look wet when you pull them out.
Step 7
Immediately, gently press 3-4 candy corn on top of each warm cookie. As you do this, the cookie will flatten slightly and look more like a cookie and not as puffy. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
